Cobra Verde

Cobra Verde

1987

Francisco Manoel da Silva (Klaus Kinski) plays an enterprising young Brazilian who, after impregnating the three daughters of his plantation-owning employer, is sent to West Africa to round up slaves. Francisco goes to great lengths to befriend the very people he hopes to enslave -- eventually managing to overthrow a mad monarch and set himself up as king.

The slaves will sell their masters and grow wings...
