| There is a saying which goes like this ‘‘a word is like an egg, once it lands on the ground it can not be pieced together again ’’. The implication of uttering a word or utterances could result in consequences far beyond ordinary comprehension as it is played out in this movie. Simply put beware of the power to the tongue.
Tunrayo felt quite bad not fulfilling her role as a wife to her husband and ultimately encourages her husband to take another wife. The young woman gives birth to a girl, called Bisola whom Tunrayo was so fond of and treated her as her own. The young girl fell ill and would not respond to all treatment given until Tunrayo finds a solution to the sickness. At this juncture Bisola’s mother becomes suspicious of Tunrayo accusing her of witchcraft. Shortly after Tunrayo’s only child is involved in an accident, but just survives it. To the young wife this is enough proof. She insists that Tunrayo is evil and persuades the husband, Soji to get her to swear to her innocence. Tunrayo tries in vain to get Soji to see reason. He felt the only way to resolve the issue was to get her to absolve herself. This process is soon to unravel the unexpected.
The movie explores the spiritual realm, the power it welds and its impact on lives. The movie goes on to show that a word or utterances could activate the spirits, in a way that is beyond our fertile imagination. The story also educates on the need to tread with caution, within the context of what is said. This movie is very interesting. It is brilliantly scripted, performed and above all tightly produced. It is a memorable effort.
