The Woman King (2022) Netflix
Set in West Africa in the early 1820s and inspired by true events, The Woman King follows General Nanisca, the fierce leader of the Agojie — an elite, all-female military regiment that defends the Kingdom of Dahomey. As she drills and shapes a new generation of recruits, including a determined young fighter, Nanisca must prepare them for a mounting threat from rival powers and the violent forces profiting from the slave trade. Torn between loyalty to their land and the moral crisis posed by the kingdom’s involvement in slavery, the Agojie confront enemies who have violated their honor and endangered their people’s way of life. The film is a sweeping, emotionally charged epic about sisterhood, duty, and the cost of fighting to protect a nation.
