The story of how Abraham Lincoln freed all the slaves from Ethiopia on January 1, 1863, is told at the beginning of the film.
There was a king at that time who had 3,000 slaves.
This plot also revolves around the army’s desire to free those captives.
As the narrative starts, we learn that a community had a large number of Abyssinian slaves who worked for the British.
There, they were chopping cotton.
They then take the slaves and depart.
The protagonist of our tale is a man by the name of Peter who lived in the same village.
He appeared to be praying while cleaning his wife’s feet as he was engrossed in his act of worship with his wife and kids at home.
Subsequently, two men appear and ask “Peter” to accompany them. Peter emphatically declines, beating them until one of them threatens him.
Your wife is going to be killed if you don’t come with us.
When “Peter” hears this, he becomes terrified and prepares to accompany them.
He is sitting in the slaves’ automobile; “Peter’s” family was distraught.
He was being driven to the woods by those people.
They have been gone for two weeks, and when they arrived at a location, many Abyssinian slaves were present.
There, railroad lines were being constructed.
“Peter” was observing his surroundings as well.
The corpses of a few deceased slaves were laying nearby.
“Peter” advances along with the newly acquired slaves.
He was also tasked with building the railroad track.
The Abyssinian slaves were being killed by the British there because they were unemployed.
”Peter” now also begins to operate slowly.
He witnesses a soldier severely beating a man for not working.
He goes to save him at that point, but a different soldier approaches and aims a gun at him.
Now, the leader of everyone, their boss, had also arrived.
After taking away the gun that had been aimed at Peter, the man goes to work.
”Peter’s” slave worker informs him that this place’s master is quite harsh.
He also applies his own seal on the slaves’ faces, and he used to take so much labor from them that at night their state was so terrible that they were unable to walk at all.
Those slaves were all kept in custody during the night.
“Peter” asks the slaves incarcerated there, “Don’t you remember your family?”
They claim that we are no longer hopeful about achieving freedom.
Some claim that we will never be free.
Here is where we will perish.
Peter remarked, “No, I have total faith in my God; he will definitely get us out of here,” in response to their loss of faith in God.
The following day, “Peter” returns to his work and goes to work.
The captain was watching him.
Every slave was occupied at labor.
At that point, some troops were chatting there and “Peter” overheard them saying that “Abraham Lincoln” had freed all the slaves.
One slave was about to be killed by a guard for improper cooking.
When “Peter” looks at him, he screams out to him and then turns to kill him, but the leader stops him and ties him up, frightening him with his hunting dog so that “Peter’s” boldness should end.
While all of the slaves were observing “Peter,” nothing could be done.
Nevertheless, he eventually leaves, and while everyone is being fed, “Peter” speaks with every slave present.
As you are aware, ”Abraham Lincoln” has requested the freedom of every slave.
How then are these folks able to keep us here?
Everyone agrees with “Peter,” and a few of his slaves were willing to stand with him.
Following that, they resume working hard on their tasks.
A slave had died in the interim, and the guards there instructed “Peter” to bury the dead slave in a pit where he had also killed the other slaves and covered them with dirt.
After realizing that the guard was also planning to kill him, “Peter” turns on them and gives them a severe beating.
After pulling a ruse, he leaves the area.
The other slaves begin chasing after him as well.
where the leader and guard opened fire, killing numerous slaves in the process, but “Peter” managed to flee.
The leader of this group is now following him along with his dogs and two guards in an attempt to apprehend him.
”Peter” was there, leading the slaves through the bush.
They arrived at a forest pond where a slave spots a large crocodile.
”Peter” crosses the pond with his friends but does not enter it.
The dogs attack poor ”Peter’s” partner, the one who was terrified of the crocodile.
The buddy who had made them his slave is visited by the same commander.
After he gets rid of his dog, he tells the poor man to go into the sea because he is now free.
He is shot by the leader.
The crocodile in the pond then comes out to pounce on him.
Conversely, the other enslaved individuals who accompanied “Peter” resolve to take separate routes in order to allow someone to elude them.
The leader will kill them if they split up.
They follow suit, but not before the leader and his hunting dogs arrived.
“Peter” arrived at a mansion, and a small child let out a cry upon spotting him there.
The commander also discovered that ”Peter” is present because of the loudness.
He rides his horse after him.
Additionally, “Peter’s” foot was hurt.
He was seriously hurt.
For this reason, he covers his foot with a bandage and jumps into an unclean pond to conceal.
The commander believes that “Peter” cannot hide in this pond since he notices a crocodile in the water.
After saying this, he leaves the area.
After he leaves, the crocodile unexpectedly catches “Peter” as he emerges from the water and drags him into the depths.
“Peter” tries to use his knife to kill the crocodile.
”Peter” sustained severe injuries during the repeated attacks that lead to the crocodile’s demise.
He carries out his therapy.
After giving him a sniff, the leader’s dogs took him to the crocodile that was floating in the water.
Now, at night, the leader and his friends catch the crocodile for food.
The commander explains to his friends that we made the Abyssinians our slaves since his father had informed him that they may occupy us.
”Peter” is shown the following morning, covering himself in dirt to prevent the leader’s dogs from approaching him.
He notices a hut there after moving a little more.
He enters, drinks water, warms his knife, and applies it to his wounds to stop them from bleeding, although he is in excruciating pain while doing this. He then approaches a tree and fly flies fly in it, and he was gathering honey and putting it to his wounds.
The leader had noticed the smoke and was headed in that direction as well, but “Peter” boards a boat and takes off.
A man approaches his wife in “Peter’s” hamlet and says, “We need slaves at one place and we will take you.”
When ”Peter’s” wife hears what her daughter has to say, she prepares to accompany her, and the guy departs, promising to return shortly. If you don’t listen to us, we will take your daughter.
The leader makes it to the cottage where “Peter” was located in the bush.
He had discovered that he had to have arrived here and proceeded down the water’s path.
“Peter” had made significant progress by occupying the boat.
Along the route to the jungle, the leader leads the way and follows him.
After reaching the coast, “Peter” is confronted by a slave who looks like him and says, brandishing a rifle, “Have you brought the leader here?”
He responds, “No, no, I didn’t bring this, and I covered my body in mud to hide my presence.”
They both run away from him now.
The hounds were coming in their direction.
“Peter” hid beneath a tree and didn’t show up when the other slave friend was perched on the tree.
The leader saw this occurrence occur.
When the slave declares, “We are free,” the leader responds, “Okay,” and shoots him.
That slave collapses from the tree, having likewise died.
The leader and his allies then severed his head and divided it.
“Peter” perceived everything as hidden as well.
He is really uncomfortable.
After killing the slave, the leader departs.
There, it was beginning to rain.
When ”Peter” emerges from the tree, he sobs greatly upon discovering the corpse of his enslaved buddy, whose condition was appalling.
The opposite side shows “Peter’s” wife, who informs her daughter that she will likewise take me as a slave starting tomorrow morning.
Her daughter is upset to hear this because they no longer have both parents, but she offers her a solution.
She visits the cotton factory and gives the machine her full attention.
Her hands are cut on both sides as a result.
She was aware that slaves without hands would not accept them.
”Peter” notices a burning horse approaching him at night.
He continues a little distance and discovers that the house where he had been earlier was likewise on fire—the small child had noticed him and had made a sound.
That house was totally destroyed by fire.
When he enters the house, he is given some food, and a young girl who is most likely the housekeeper is present.
Actually, the Abyssinian slaves had attacked and set fire to the British, who owned this home.
Anyhow, he now shows that chick off.
The leader’s men then grabs “Peter” from behind and tells him to stand up, but he is enraged because the girl dies after giving him her locket. “Look, let me save this girl’s life,” he says.
Using the leader’s companion’s gun, he now murders him, followed by his other companion.
when he heard his dogs barking.
One is slain by him.
He had some freedom.
From here, he runs a lot—so much so that morning appears as he runs.
He arrives to a location where a large number of people have passed away.
There was a war in progress.
While “Peter” was observing the explosions from a distance, the leader had also arrived, caught up with him, and was ready to murder him.
With a gun aimed at him, he declares, “I am your God,” but the leader is fatally shot by a bullet.
Peter says after his death, “No, you are not our God.”
After that, a few soldiers show up.
The leader had been hit by gunfire.
”Peter” passes out before he can tell them anything about that commander.
When he eventually awakens, he discovers that he is in a medical camp with other slaves that are similar to him.
When a nurse arrives, she advises him to go to bed.
Afterwards, “Peter” approaches a man and confides in him completely about himself.
About his family, his enslavement, and the leader who had previously mistreated them.
Actually, the reason those troops had helped him was because there was a war going on here to free the slaves from Ethiopia.
The man tells “Peter” that he is free to leave, but not until he first release other slaves who are similar to him.
Following that, you are free to return home.
“Peter” concurs even if he doesn’t like this.
Upon his escape, he finds himself working beside a fellow slave who fled alongside him.
He is overjoyed to see him until the nurse and two guards approach him and declare, “We want to use your picture to show the world what atrocities are committed with slaves.”
He is then included into his team when they take a picture of him and display it for everyone to see.
He had to prepare his future as a soldier—how would he free other slaves? Did they have any bombs, an officer asks?
Because they will be in danger if their attackers have big weapons.
“Peter,” the officer says, are you a fighter?” Are you gon’ help us win this war?
Now, “Peter” tells him his tale, saying, “I was sold and have endured a lot of suffering, but I am free and can fight now.”
Never will I give up on myself.
This makes the officer delighted to hear.
The officer continues on the following day with his soldiers, telling everyone that we must fight with all of our strength.
Bombs were attacking them as they advanced, which puts the soldiers in danger.
‘Peter’ also disappears in a blast.
The cop is also struck by a gunshot.
Then “Peter” stands up, defeats his adversary, and advances a little distance.
He is saddened to learn that the officer has passed away.
His will to battle had grown even stronger at this point, so he took his allies and advanced toward the enemy, attacking without fearing when he reached the opponent’s base.
“Peter” and his allies had prevailed in this conflict.
This location was totally demolished.
A few days later, “Peter” and the other troops return to their village.
Everyone is told that they are now free and can live in freedom lawfully once they all go and capture the individuals who used to hold the Abyssinians as slaves there.
Hearing this, everyone cheers and gets to meet their family.
“Peter” does not visit his wife and kids at home when he gets there.
This explains why he appears to be seeing his family outside.
They had him on their radar as well.
Peter felt truly liberated when he finally met his family.
We learn at the film’s conclusion that “Peter’s” painting has come to represent slavery’s global domination.
Following this, “Abraham Lincoln” emancipated a large number of slaves from Ethiopia.
Peter would never have been able to see his family again if he had lost and given up on his courage. Instead, it was because of his passion and courage that he was able to meet them.
We should never give up and constantly try bravely.
