A TV Series by Sprints Gboko
General Overview

Dahomey Tassi Bracelet is a Beninese action series directed by Sprints Gboko, blending royal legends and modernity in an epic narrative deeply rooted in the history of the ancient Kingdom of Dahomey.
Through an immersive staging that fuses traditional and contemporary aesthetics, the series explores the legacy of the Amazons, African spirituality, and the fight against drepanocytosis (sickle cell disease).

This series marks a turning point in Beninese cinema — the first TV series from Benin entirely dubbed in English, aiming to break linguistic barriers and establish a strong presence on the international stage.

Synopsis

Centuries after the disappearance of Queen Tassi Hangbè, her spirit returns to the world of the living to restore the broken balance between kingdoms.
Bearing a mystical bracelet, Tassi reincarnates in human form to save the soul of her lost son and confront the Kpanligans, a dark clan led by the Young Prince, determined to destroy her and seize the bracelet.

At the heart of this struggle stands King Dah Kinmandjè, formerly known as Steffen before his enthronement, striving to protect Dahomey’s spiritual heritage. His life is threatened by Baba Daho, an old sorcerer obsessed with the eternal youth granted by the bracelet.
Meanwhile, Delacroix, a European businessman, covets the kingdom’s mystical artifacts, willing to pay a fortune to exploit their hidden power.

Between betrayal, faith, and ancestral power, Dahomey Tassi Bracelet portrays an eternal battle between light and darkness — a tribute to the grandeur of Dahomey and to the resilient African woman warrior.
