Slave Village Cameroon

Cameroon is one of those countries that suffered from the slave trade and the first African country to also have its citizens return from the US after the DNA tests proved their ancestry roots were from Cameroon. Slave Village is in Bimbia where slaves were transported from everywhere in Cameroon to export to Europe and other countries.

I shot this video to show to the world what it looked like during those days.

Kareyce Fotso playing the sound track giving the feeling of exactly what happens when you miss your love ones. Her music gives the video another level.

Thanks,

Penjo

Hi Grandkaokao, you should tell us what you know and not say its a poor narrative, if u say so, then the entire Council of Bimbia does not have the true story and have been giving that same wrong info to people that visit Bimbia. I did not plan for this event, but shot what was happening in Limbe.

Great premise for an age old story. Wonderful concept. Beautifully shot and magnificently edited. But i never got a full understanding of the main plot. But great work all the same.

A poor counterfeit of roots.A typical wannabe movie writer and director.The so call movie is too noisy and the singer is too loud and annoying.This nonesense is coming too late.Come up with something creative or just find you a day job.

Great achieves.

Though it is past, i still feel so cold.

Any were great acting.

Do not forget that slave trade still exits.

You should try to identify it in any of it's faces.

I'll say more power to your elder. The back ground music is cute and well sellected. But You would have hire a white to act as a merchant to make it more colourful.

This is a great touristic site but it is really sad to see it not developed. Go to places like Thailand and see how such places give the economy hundred of millions annually. We got a long way to go.

@penjoka This was a great video! That person Grandkaokao tried to post the same thing on my page. I say, they should make a documentary but bring proper facts versus personal views on the narrative. And allow us to be the critics. Nonsense!
