West Africa, 1823 – An opening crawl states that the kingdom of Dahomey has crowned a young king, Ghezo (John Boyega). Their enemies, the Oyo Empire, have teamed up with the Mahi people to capture Dahomey villagers and give them to European slave traders. The Oyo have an advantage with their guns and horses. The Dahomey have a group of female amazon warriors, the Agojie, led by General Nanisca (Viola Davis), who are set to protect their kingdom. The Agojie infiltrate a Mahi village, slaughtering the soldiers before coming across the captured villagers and freeing them. In the morning, the Agojie mourn their dead and escort the captives back home. The warriors return home before more Oyo arrive, where Ghezo considers Nanisca to be his most trusted soldier.
