LONG SYNOPSIS [CONTAINS SPOILERS!]

A series of misfortunes lead a West African village to accuse a young girl, Asabi (OPHELIA DZIDZORNU), of being a witch.

Their Pastor (FRED AMUGI) insists that the only hope of salvation lies in her exorcism and death. His compelling rhetoric

and ability to incite fear into the people turn Asabi’s mother (AMA K ABEBRESE) and threatens to tear their fragile world

apart.

Disillusioned reporter, Godwin (ORIS ERHUERO), arrives in the village to cover a local festival, but soon finds himself

swept up in the witch hunt. With the help of a young school teacher (JOSEPH OTSIMAN), Godwin attempts to save Asabi’s

life, bravely speaking out and fighting back against the false prophets (JIMMY JEAN-LOUIS). Finding quickly that they are

no match for the sway that the Pastor and his prophet hold over the village, they become desperate.

In a final attempt to break Asabi free and escape with her, Godwin confronts the Pastor. Godwin is murdered in cold blood,

but not before he can secretly record incriminating evidence of the Pastor’s corruption to his tape recorder. John Moses

soon discovers Godwin’s lifeless body and the tape recorder.

Interrupting Asabi’s execution, John Moses presents the tape recording to the crowd. In a final showdown, he successfully

turns everyone against the Pastor, who eventually relinquishes control over the villages, freeing Asabi.

Based on true events, THE CURSED ONES is a story of morality, corruption, and community in the heart of Africa.

⤚ SYNOPSES ⤙

BACKGROUNDThe film poignantly addresses the ongoing problem of child witch accusations widespread throughout Africa and the

world. Young children are accused of being witches and wizards, possessed by the devil, and responsible for whatever

otherwise inexplicable ailment has befallen the family or wider community. They are tortured, abandoned, and even

brutally murdered. To make things worse, self-proclaimed exorcists will charge unseemly amounts to heal a child,

extorting families with the threat of publicly denouncing their children as the spawn of Satan.

PRODUCTION NOTESNicholas K. Lory came across the subject during his Anthropology studies at Oxford and approached Nana and Maximilian

about a narrative film on the subject. Production began a year later in the Eastern Region of Ghana. Cast and crew came

from around the globe, with many coming from Ghana itself. Through close collaboration with the local people, both

infront of and behind the camera, the backdrop of the film came alive and took on an authenticity that would otherwise

have been unachievable. Post-production took place in London, with music being composed and recorded in New York.

Nana’s primary aim as a filmmaker is to present West-

African stories with the quality and authenticity that he

insists is so often lacking in representations of Africa made

by African and non-Africans alike.

Institute London. He is based in London and is currently

developing a feature-length screenplay about African

immigrants to London.
