About This Movie
A Storm Was Coming is a fascinating exploration of colonial tension and heritage. The documentary weaves together the tragic story of Ësáasi Eweera, a Bubi king who stood against Spanish rule, and the murky waters of his death. The pacing is contemplative, allowing you to absorb the historical context while the visuals create an atmospheric backdrop that is both haunting and illuminating. The film's unique structure mimics a detective narrative, which draws you into the investigation of a century-old mystery. It challenges colonial narratives in a subtle yet effective way. The performances, while not traditional in a documentary sense, are deeply affecting, resonating with a sense of lost legacy that hangs over the entire film.
