"PRODUCTION DESIGN
BY AKIN MACKENZIE IS
LUSH AND OPULENT,
DRENCHED IN DEEP RED AND
YELLOW HUES. A LOT OF THOUGHT
WENT INTO MAKING THE
KINGDOM OF DAHOMEY LOOK
AS AUTHENTIC AS POSSIBLE."
"AN EXHILARATING
VIEWING EXPERIENCE.
GORGEOUS COSTUMES AND
PRODUCTION DESIGN FILL EACH
SPACE WITH INTRICATE DETAILS THAT
LOOK HAND-CRAFTED, ADDING
AUTHENTICITY TO A PEOPLE WHOSE
STORIES WE RARELY SEE."
