Boudica: Rise of the Warrior Queen (2019) - full transcript

Boudica is an innocent sixteen-year-old girl who is forced into an arranged marriage by her father, the leader of a Celtic Tribe. However, her mother is unsure, doing whatever it takes to protect her daughter.

What's wrong, is it too much?

No, no.

I'll be fine.

You taught me well.

I understand it is my time.

Lucilia!

Is she ready?

Stand up straight.

A lot of people are
counting on you, Boudica.

Do not dishonor the family name.

Her hair, it's not right.



She is ready.

It needs to be done again.

The future of our
clan depends on this.

I will not let you
hold things up further.

Forgive me, Scavo.

Athedo is here.

He's waiting in the throne room.

Rome has appointed a
new governor, Scapula.

And he has decreed
that the tribes

must hand over
all their weapons.

As the only two tribes
yet to bend their knee,

we must stand together
now and show the others

that Rome will not take
what is rightfully ours.

Our arrangement can wait.



We must act now.

Will you join us?

We will.

We'll attend to our
business upon our return.

Father, I don't
understand what is going on.

You do not need to
understand, Boudica.

Now go with your mother.

- But Father-
- Do not disobey me, child!

Go with your mother.

Shh, it's okay,
it's all right.

Just don't scream, okay?

You need to gather your things.

Why?

What are you doing?

Mom!

The Romans are coming for us.

They are heading this way.

We need to leave here at once.

But what about Father?

Your father has
been gone for days.

He's probably already dead.

What?

Here, put this on.

Mama!

Boudica, I know
this is strange,

but all will become
clear, I promise.

What is that?

Supplies.

You've been planning
this, haven't you?

How far are we going?

Far enough.

Where are you taking me?

We haven't got time for this.

No, this isn't fair.

Do you trust me?

Of course I do.

Then follow me.

I promise I'll
explain everything.

Whoa!

Are you all right?

Mom, please, can we stop?

Ugh! There must be a
better route than this!

We're in the middle of nowhere!

This is the safest way.

The safest way for what?

This is ridiculous.

The Romans aren't
coming for us, I lied.

This is for your
benefit, Boudica,

for your future.

I don't understand.

I could not stand aside

and let you marry a man
that you don't love.

I've done that, Boudica,

and believe me, it
leads to a lifetime

of misery and regret.

That young man that you
saw from the other tribe,

Prasutagus, your betrothed,

the man that you would live
with for the rest of your life,

day in, day out,
bear his children

and do whatever he wants

whenever he wants...

Do you really want all of that?

It doesn't matter what I want.

It's what I have to do
to honor our family.

Oh, my child.

You no longer have
to do any of that.

The union of our tribe
and the Trinovantes

is not your responsibility,
it is your father's.

This, this is why I
have taken you away.

So you can live
whatever life you like.

Something I could only dream of

when I was your age.

Will we see Father again?

You were right before.

I have been planning
this for a long time.

We are going somewhere where
your father will never find us.

Couldn't we just
have reasoned with him?

Do you want to go back?

You think you know your father

but you don't know
him like I do.

He is strong.

And stubborn.

And cruel.

His pride will drive him mad

and he will search for
us until the day he dies

or until he kills us.

I have followed his rules

and lived under his shadow

for far too long.

It is time for us to have
some freedom, you and me.

Is this really for both of us?

Or just for yourself?

You will always come
first to me, Boudica.

You are my one and only child,

and I will do everything
in my power to protect you.

Now come on.

We were lucky this
time, my friend.

If we'd faced greater numbers,

the outcome might have
been less fortunate.

They will not make
that mistake again.

Scapula will be joining
reinforcements as we speak.

Our union must be confirmed.

I can understand
your impatience.

Prasutagus and Boudica will
be married soon enough.

Our union will set an
example to the other tribes

that we can stand against Rome.

Only with their help
will we stand a chance.

Athedo!

Scavo, Scavo,

we have received news from home.

What is it?

Boudica and Lucilia
are both missing.

We sent out search parties.

There's no sign as yet.

Was it an attack?

Nothing else has been touched.

Am I hearing this right?

I suggest you resolve
this as soon as possible.

No daughter means no union.

I will find them.

Untouched, I hope.

My son will not be wedded
to tarnished goods.

Tarnished goods?

I can't help but note the
timing of this incident, Athedo.

How am I to know you
are not involved?

Watch your tongue, Scavo.

Question my honor
again, and the Romans

will be the least
of your troubles.

You have many
enemies, my friend,

but I am not one of them.

It's up to you to
find out who is.

And what of your
responsibilities?

I'll send my
men out to search,

and Prasutagus will
accompany you himself.

After all, it is his bride
that is missing, too.

You said it would
take just a few days.

I don't understand why we
can't just stick to a path.

I told you before, we
can't afford to be seen.

At this rate, we won't be
seen by anyone ever again.

We are not lost,

I just haven't been
there for a long time.

We'll find it, I promise.

Find what?

Is that Father's?

This has been worn

by the leaders of the
Iceni for generations.

It is your birthright

to become a leader
one day, if you wish.

Whilst I am with you now,

there will come a
day where I won't,

let this broach be a
proof of your lineage.

I love you very much, Boudica.

You must always know that.

I love you too, Mom.

Now come on, we must sleep.

So this is
where you used to live?

Yes,
and this is where

we're going to live from now on.

But
there's nothing here.

At least at home
there are people.

We are home.

No, we're not.

We can't live out
here on our own.

We belong back in the village.

Your father won't
have us back now.

There's nothing there
for you anymore.

Well, what about Prasutagus?

You don't love Prasutagus.

Well, I've learned to.

I thought like that once.

Look at me.

You're with me, now.

We will make this work.

Is he
going to be all right?

His wound is deep.

It looks like he's tried
to stitch it himself.

Is he going to die?

Boudica, we have no
idea who this man is.

We can't trust him, which means

we can't help him.

What are we supposed to do,

just watch him die?

He's just another
mouth to feed,

and we're going to struggle,
just the two of us.

Please, can we help him?

Just take a look at the wound,

see how bad it is and
then make a decision?

I will take a look at it,

but be prepared.

There's only so much I can do.

I'm sure we'll find them.

Of course, I was just-

- I do not need words of
sympathy from you, boy!

Understand?

I need progress.

Is there any word
from?

Yes, apologies.

We've been informed that he
was killed by his own nephew.

Do you wish to speak to him?

No.

No, if is
dead, the Catuvellauni

will be too busy fighting
amongst themselves

to have been involved.

Gather the men, we're moving on.

Where are we going?

I've been a fool
to think that anyone

other than the Romans
could be behind this.

The Romans, are you sure?

Open your eyes, boy.

It can be no one else.

But the Romans are trying
to quell the fighting.

This would be an act of war.

Their mere presence
is an act of war.

You children, you have no idea

what they've done to this land.

How things were before they
poisoned us against each other.

How they make us
abide by their laws

and worship their false gods.

Have you learnt nothing
from your father?

You know I speak the truth.

The Romans are
not to be trusted.

Nothing is beneath them.

Then where should
we look first?

Camulodunum.

The Roman town?

Hm.

Very well.

I can't believe the
state of this place.

Finding food and water will
not be as easy as back home.

What do you mean?

It's a different
world out here.

You'll have to learn
how to survive properly.

Don't worry, I'll teach you.

Did you live here
when you met Father?

I met your father
on our wedding day.

He never came here?

I was 14 when
my mother told me

it was time to get married.

I was petrified.

I cried myself to
sleep every night

just worrying about who
this man was gonna be.

Your father never visited me,

and we never met on our own.

We married and

he took me back to his home.

The town seemed
so big in my eyes,

compared to here.

I couldn't believe my life
had changed in just one day.

And Father?

As the Romans started
to take over our land,

anger and bitterness
took over your father.

He became nasty and violent.

The smallest of things
would set him off.

I would have killed
myself years ago

and ended this nightmare,
had you not come along.

Boudica,

we cannot trust him.

You know nothing about him.

Exactly.

You cannot trust men.

And we certainly
cannot trust him.

Listen to me.

I will kill him if
he does anything

to give me reason to do so.

Listen to me.

Is she ready?

Do not disobey me, child.

Do not dishonor the family name.

A lifetime of
misery and regret.

Do you really want all of that?

Mom!

Boudica!

Boudica!

Boudica!

What's wrong, what's wrong?

He's awake.

This town is now
under Roman rule.

I must leave our weapons here.

We are not here to fight.

We are here to find
my wife and daughter.

Drink!

You, I'm looking for
somebody to help me.

Meaning?

Where are the slaves kept?

You need him, over there.

He can help you.

Do you have anything for sale?

I have coin.

There's no wasting
about with you, is there?

Follow me.

Hey!

This is my latest door.

Criminals mostly, all
destined for the mines.

This one on the
left's pretty smart

Unless you're willing
to offer a better price.

Any of these tickle your fancy?

I'm looking for
women and girls.

Oh, yeah?

Well, we've got one
woman at the moment

if you can call her that.

Which is a shame because
they can be quite popular,

if you know what
I mean.

The women in this land do
little for me, to be honest.

I prefer a woman
who's taken a bath

at least once in her
lifetime.

We will not find
them if we kill today.

It's time to leave.

I'm sorry for taking so much.

You caught me by surprise.

I mean you no harm.

I didn't realize
anybody lived here.

We haven't always lived here.

But we do now.

This is our house.

Who are you?

My name is Geminus.

I traveled here
with my tribesmen

to help them fight the Romans.

But we were
outnumbered in defeat.

I was separated from the others

along with another wounded man.

This wounded man,

is that who you were
burying out there?

I'm so sorry.

You have said you've
not always lived here.

What brings you
to this place now?

This is my family home.

I grew up here as a child.

My husband has died recently.

It was too dangerous
to stay there.

I decided to bring
my daughter here

to start a new life
away from the Romans.

Let me make this clear.

My father built this house,

and I will not be driven
out by a stranger.

You can remain here until
you regain your strength,

but as soon as you are better

you will have to leave.

I appreciate your honesty.

Winter is fast approaching.

And this place is falling apart.

- How do you expect-
- Enough.

We don't need your help.

I'm quite aware of the
circumstances that we are in,

but myself and Boudica
can work it out together.

Boudica.

It means goddess of victory.

As long as we
understand each other,

we are settled.

What if Geminus could help us?

When he gets stronger he can
help us rebuild this place.

Let's not get
ahead of ourselves.

He needs to get strong first.

Now get some rest.

You're
looking a lot better.

I feel it.

I can't thank you and
your mother enough.

Where is she?

Out gathering food.

With another mouth
to feed, it's crucial

we find more to eat.

Has it ever occurred
to you you may not

be able to stay here forever?

What happens if you
run out of food?

I don't know.

All I do know is

wherever my mother
goes, I'll go.

What about you?

Don't you have a
home to go back to?

Family? Wife?

I have dozens of wives.

I'm sure they all
miss me terribly.

Are you married?

Sorry, that...

That really isn't
any of my business.

No, it isn't any
of your business,

but no, I'm not.

Really?

Would you like to
be married some day?

Is that some kind of proposal?

No, I'm just intrigued

to know what type of
girl you are, that's all.

What type of girls
are there, then?

Well, there's some
that wish to get married

and have children.

Most others prefer
to experience more.

And which do you think I am?

I don't know yet.

Guess I'll have to spend more
time with you to be sure.

What type of man are you?

Thought I knew

You're looking a
lot better today.

And up on your
feet, that's good.

You can leave first
thing tomorrow morning.

I understand.

Can I at least cook
for us tonight?

If you so wish.

You don't mind giving me
a hand with these, do you?

I can see what's happening.

What do you mean?

You and him.

You think I can't see it?

See what?

The looks between
the pair of you.

Going quiet when I
walk in the door.

Offering to feed him
and tend to his wounds.

I'm not stupid.

I never said you were.

Well, it just feels
like you're both getting

a bit too close for comfort.

And what's so
wrong about that?

When you dragged
me out of my home

in the middle of
nowhere, you told me

it was so that I could
live the way I like.

And love who I want.

So why do I still feel trapped?

Don't be so ridiculous.

Me, ridiculous?

How is that fair?

Look, I don't want to
argue with you, not over him.

Me, neither, but I
just need to breathe.

Maybe you need to think
about the real reason

why you dragged me out here.

And what is
that supposed to mean?

Boudica!

Boudica!

Up! Get up!

Grab your things and let's go.

Where are we going?

We're heading to
the next Roman town.

What makes you
think they're there?

Just because it's a Roman town?

Let's not waste our time, Scavo.

When Rome has deprived
you of something you love,

you tell me then that
we're wasting your time.

I will search every
Roman town in the empire

if that's what it takes.

If you and those men
are too lazy to do so,

then leave now,
'cause I will not rest

until I have my family back.

When Boudica was born,

she looked up at me, and I knew

I would do anything
to keep her safe.

I would never rest,
I would never give up

til she could live in a
land free of Rome's tyranny.

I will fight them
until my dying breath.

What is she like, Boudica?

She is tough.

She's a hard worker
and headstrong.

She has a temper, too.

She'd eat you alive.

So nice to be back
on my feet again.

I'm lucky to be
where I am, though.

Like I said, I'm very grateful
to you and your mother.

I know she isn't fond of me.

But you've always
given me a chance.

You have a kind heart.

And if there's anything
I can do for you,

I'll do it.

We'd better get moving

if you want to find something
good to cook tonight.

Be dark soon.

How have you never
learned to do these things?

These are all basic
survival skills.

Just something my father does.

Being the leader of our
tribe means jobs like hunting

tend to be his responsibility.

Leader of a tribe?

A king?

Yeah, I guess
you could say that.

He is a very powerful man.

I thought your
father was dead.

Yeah, he is.

I guess it hasn't
quite sunk in yet

that he is gone.

You all right?

Yeah, I...

It's been a busy afternoon,

and I guess my body
isn't used to it yet.

Do you mind if we sit?

Not for long, just-

- Of course.

What is that?

It's been passed
down through my family.

My mother gave it to me when
we left home to come here.

It must mean a lot to you.

It does.

Family means a lot to me.

Something my father
always taught me.

Have I grown to
mean a lot to you?

We need to go now.

My mother will be
worried about me.

About where I am.

Geminus.

A gesture of thanks

for everything you've done.

Good morning.

How're you feeling?

About yesterday, I'm sorry.

I didn't mean to make
you feel uncomfortable.

I just thought you felt-

- Don't apologize.

I was just confused about
how to feel, that's all.

So how do you feel now?

Mom?

What's wrong?

You don't look very well.

I'm fine.

Don't fuss.

Where are you going?

To get some fresh air.

Maybe you should go with her.

I don't think it's wise
to leave her alone.

I'm worried about you.

There's no need, I'm fine.

You're not well.

It came on during the night

after I'd had food.

The weather is changing.

It is normal to feel
ill this time of year.

This has nothing to
do with the weather.

Come on, I need to take
you back to the cottage

so you can rest.

Come on.

What's happened?

I don't know.

I was outside, and
it just caved in.

We're lucky we weren't inside.

There's not much we
can do about this now,

we're just gonna
have to weather it.

Why would a hole just appear?

It doesn't make sense.

You must have done something.

This is going to
take days to repair.

Can you repair this?

Of course we can.

I'll collect wood
for the supports

and you can fix the roof.

How long until
it all falls down?

What would you suggest?

How about we just
tear the place down

and start again from scratch?

We could look for
somewhere else to stay.

We?

You are very welcome
to find somewhere else.

Calm down, both of you.

If it gets worse, then
we can make a decision.

But right now, you need to rest.

But Boudica, we can't-

- No!

Leave it to Geminus and me.

Been working on
this roof for days.

Doesn't seem to be
getting any better.

The supports are all rotted.

It'll all need to come down,

and we can't do it between us.

I just wanted to do
something nice for my mother.

One less thing for
her to worry about.

Of course, but it's
just not safe anymore.

Listen to me.

You have to find
somewhere else to stay.

Boudica!

There are bound to
be villagers nearby.

Or you could go back home
where you know it is safe.

Why do you want us
out of here so badly?

I don't, it's just-

- Just stop!

It's still standing,
so my mother and I

will continue to live here.

Grow up and be realistic.

I don't have to
do anything you say.

Boudica?

Boudica.

What's happened?

Look, if this is about the roof-

- It's not about the roof.

What, then?

This is about him, isn't it?

Not now.

Now
is a perfect time.

I don't trust him, Boudica.

I haven't from day one.

I still think that
there's something

not quite right about him.

The way that you two are
getting close together,

I just feel like he's
coming between us.

What are you trying to say?

I'm just saying that
he needs to leave now.

So you can have
me all to yourself?

Is that it?

What?

You didn't bring me out
here so I could be free.

You just want me to
yourself all the time.

No, that's not true.

Yes it is!

If I was to go off and marry,

you would be alone with Father.

And you've made your feelings
towards him perfectly clear.

How dare you?

What, tell the truth?

Let's start being honest
with each other, shall we?

Or let's carry on pretending

that this whole nightmare
was to protect me.

Everything I have
done has been for you.

You are my daughter,
my one and only child.

I would rather die
than see you miserable

for the rest of your life.

Just because
you were miserable

doesn't mean for a second
that I would've been.

I know you would have.

No, you just assumed.

Why can't I make
my own decisions

about what happens to me?

Stop thinking that my
desire to protect you

is the same as trying
to control your life.

Maybe you should've stayed.

Or maybe you should focus
on saving your own marriage

instead of ruining mine!

What is wrong with you?

We've fought in battles
that have lasted weeks,

and now you drag your feet?

But we're not in battle.

What did you say?

What did you say?

We're not in battle, Scavo.

We're just aimlessly
wandering around the forest

with no idea where we're going.

We are searching for
my wife, my daughter.

We understand
the urgency, Scavo.

Are we really gonna search
every Roman town in Britain

until you're satisfied
they're not there?

I will do whatever it takes.

The trail has run dry, Scavo.

Your future
queen is out there.

And unless you want to
live the rest of your lives

under the leadership of Rome,

you will continue
to help me find her.

This is not just for me.

This is for the future
of the Iceni tribe,

the future of your families.

If you wish to turn
your back on your tribe

you're welcome to leave now.

She's not here.

I know, I saw her run off.

Is everything okay?

This has nothing
to do with you.

Actually, this has
everything to do with you.

I'm concerned about my daughter

and how close you have become.

I don't trust you.

And I can't just sit here
and watch my daughter

have her heart broken.

Lucilia,

I can appreciate the fact
that we've not agreed

on certain things,

but if there's one
thing we can agree on,

it's that we both
care about Boudica

very much.

Nothing can break the love a
mother has for her daughter.

I don't want to do that.

I just want to be given the
chance to make her happy.

I should go and find her.

- If you hurt her-
- Lucilia.

You have my word.

Bring her back safe.

Let her know that I love her.

I thought I'd find
you out here crying.

But instead, you're
trying to kill a tree.

Don't push me.

I'm trying to help you.

Widen your stance.

Bend your knees.

You want to hit here

and on the way
back you hit here.

Your mother's worried about you.

She's upset.

I can see you are, too.

Is there anything we can do?

The way I spoke to
you before, I'm sorry.

There's no need to apologize.

I understand.

The way you were
attacking that tree,

the way you speak to people,

you have fire and passion.

If you were to channel
all that energy

and anger into one thing

you would be unstoppable.

Tell me about you, Geminus.

There's not much to tell.

I've never really known
my place in this world.

Just been thankful
to survive each day.

Sometimes I feel like I just go

wherever the wind takes me.

But with you, Boudica,

I know where I am.

Halt!

What business do you have here?

I'm surprised to see a
Roman troop about these parts.

Are you in search of something?

Perhaps we can help.

We do not need any help
from the likes of you.

So you haven't seen two
women on your travels?

We do not know what
you are talking about.

Now move along!

Very well.

They have weapons.

Wait!

We'll take those
weapons before you go.

By order of Governor
Astoria Scapula.

Which weapon?

I'm afraid me and my
friends have decided

we don't want you
bastards telling us

what we can and can't do.

What are you doing?

Leave now, boy.

You don't have to be here.

I'm ready to fight.

You're too important.

Go back and tell your
father what has happened.

You've done enough
son, now leave.

What tribe do you belong to?

Belong to?

I am Scavo, King
of the Iceni tribe.

And I am looking for the Romans

who took my wife and daughter.

We do not know
where you family are.

Surrender now while you
still have the chance.

I would rather die
fighting for what I believe

than crawl away like a coward.

What are you doing here?

- Speak!
- A rescue mission.

For who?

A general, brother to
the governor himself.

Scapula's brother?

Yes, he's in the
hills to the north.

Please, let me-

I'm searching for
a Roman general.

Have you passed anyone?

No, we haven't.

Who are you?

What are you doing here?

We are very sorry,
we are on our way.

We're not sorry.

We have done nothing wrong.

I believe it's none of
your business, anyway.

Boudica,
let's just go.

Do you know who I am, girl?

Girl?

I don't appreciate your tone.

Take her back to where
you came from immediately.

If you want me to move,
talk to me, not him.

Let's just
move on peacefully.

Don't think you
can get away free

after disrespecting
a soldier of Rome.

Okay, this is
getting out of hand.

Boudica, we need to go.

Now!

Where have you been?

You need to leave now.

What?

I'm ordering you both
to leave immediately.

It's not safe anymore.

You have to come with us.

I can't.

Please, come with us.

I said no.

Now gather your things together.

Geminus!

Stop, what's happening?

It's not safe here.

It never has been.

And now the Romans are coming.

Enough!

You do not have the
right to order us around.

Are you not listening to me?

The Romans are on their way.

This is my home.

I will not be forced out of it.

You need to calm down.

It's going to be fine.

When Geminus came
looking for me,

a Roman found us in the woods.

He started fighting
with Geminus,

and we killed him.

What?!

He was going to kill us.

We had no other choice.

You could've listened to me

but you chose not to!

And now I've killed
a Roman officer.

The Romans are our enemy.

So am I!

I'm a legionnaire
in the Roman army.

That's not true.

I was recruited two years ago

and I've been fighting against
people like you ever since.

I don't believe it.

You're just saying that
to get us to leave.

It's the truth.

Boudica, I'm trying
to protect you.

When you first arrived here,

the wounded man I was with,

he was a Roman general.

I volunteered to
stay by his side

while my compatriot
went off for help.

More legionnaires
are on their way.

And when they get here,

I'm not gonna be
able to protect you.

I'm not going anywhere.

If I die, it will
be in this house.

If you stay here

you will be sealing
Boudica's fate as well.

I can't allow that.

No, Geminus, don't!

You're not a bad man.

Please, my mother
loves this place.

We'll figure something out,

but do not hurt her.

Then talk sense into her.

This isn't you.

I know who you are.

You're sweet and caring.

You have a good heart.

You don't know your place
in this world, remember?

I love you.

I know you love me, too.

Your place in this
world is with me.

Please, I beg you,

when the legionnaires
come, reason with them.

You always said how
thankful you were

to me and my mother
for saving your life.

That'd be in return.

Kill me.

I deserve no less.

I love you both.

I need you both
with me, by my side.

Whatever challenges await us,

we will face them together.

We need to talk.

Boudica, he's lying to us.

Listen to me.

Geminus said that he volunteered

to protect the
Roman general, yes?

When we got here, he was wounded

and barely able to stand up.

What use would he have
been to the general?

Look, I'm not saying this
to cause another argument.

I'm just saying that I'm certain

he's not telling the truth.

I want to know what's
really buried out there.

If you're not
right about this...

There's no question about it.

His story doesn't add up.

Something else happened here.

Think, Boudica.

I'll take him into the woods,

and that will give you enough
time to dig up the grave.

I'm not leaving you
alone with that man.

He's not going to hurt me.

You don't know that.

We don't know what
he's capable of.

Boudica, I told you
I'd always protect you.

I will go into the woods.

You stay here, and
while we are gone,

you find out what's
buried in the ground.

Do you trust me?

Yes.

Walk with me.

I understand we haven't always
seen eye to eye, Geminus.

But you must appreciate I
love my daughter very much

and I can sometimes seem a
little overprotective of her.

Your mother must have been
the same way with you.

I understand how young men

are recruited into the legions.

For some, it can be
the right decision.

Was it that way with you?

It was either join the
Roman army or be killed.

I wasn't ready to die.

And now that you've
killed one of your own?

Whether you meant to or not,

I can imagine that you're going

through a tough time right now.

What you do next
is very important,

not just for you, but
for Boudica, as well.

So what are your true
feelings for my daughter?

If you do wish to marry her,

I need to know your
intentions for her safety.

Why have you really
brought me here, Lucilia?

We both know you'd never
let me marry Boudica.

Are you trying to distract
me from something?

I'm looking for my
wife and daughter.

Have you seen them?

We have no idea what
you're talking about.

Move on.

Who is this man?

I told you to move on.

I do not take
orders from Rome.

Who is this man?

He is General
Octavius Scapula.

Brother to Governor
Ostorius Scapula.

Now move on or face the wrath

of the most powerful
man in Britain.

You'll both be dead long
before long before he's here.

Leave now while you
still have the chance.

Legionnaires are on their way.

I wouldn't be so sure, boy.

If your brother wants to
take my family from me,

I'm gonna take his.

I'm sorry, Boudica.

He arrived here a
day before you did.

He was looking for you.

I tried to get him to listen.

I tried to make him leave,

but there was no
reasoning with him.

He was like a madman.

Before I knew it, he
pulled his sword out

and he killed the general.

He seemed so pleased
with what he had done,

I knew I was next.

It was self defense.

I had no other choice.

I had no idea who you were then

or what was going to happen.

Please.

Try to understand.

Where is my mother?

Look at me!

No, no!

Listen to me, listen to me.

No!

Boudica, why can't you see

you're so much better than them?

You don't need her or
your father anymore.

That passion, that
fire inside of you,

you have the strength
to change the world.

If you would ask me, I
would turn my back on Rome

and stand by your
side, no matter what.

Think about what we
could do together.

Let go of the past, Boudica.

Embrace the warrior inside you.

Ugh!

Mama!

Mama!

Boudica.

Mom?

Boudica!

Mom!

Come on.

I like your confidence.

Put the sword down, Boudica.

I want not to have to kill you.

It's time for
you to go, Geminus.

You need to get away from
here and never come back.

I'm not going
anywhere without her.

I've turned my back
on everything for you

and now I wanna
collect what's mine.

I will never go with you!

My place is with my mother.

Just go, Geminus.

Look at you.

She could never love you.

She would've loved me
if it wasn't for you.

If you would've
just left us alone,

everything would've been fine.

Everything would've been fine?

You're nothing but a cruel,

- weak man.
- Shut up!

You need to grow up, girl.

Do you really wanna
live under her control

the rest of your life?

You really need somebody
to set you free.

Ugh!

The fight in you, look
how strong you've become.

You're a goddess, a warrior.

Boudica.

No, no.

You didn't need your father,

now you don't need your mother.

You're right, and I
don't need you either.
