Tula, a slave on the Kenepa plantation in Curaçao, becomes increasingly aware of the unequal position his people find themselves in. Fueled by the news that France has abolished slavery in Haiti and that the new Dutch republic is now under French rule, he tries to improve the position of his people. But his peaceful resistance is met with incomprehension from the colonial authorities. His inspiration, however, manages to unite his own people in an unequal struggle for freedom, equality, and brotherhood. Tula - Lost Freedom tells the true story of the leader of the Great Slave Uprising on Curaçao in 1795.
Directed by author Jeroen Leinders, the film stars Jeroen Krabbé, Derek de Lint, and Henriëtte Tol, as well as several international actors. The filming took place in October and November 2012.
Jeroen Leinders (Amsterdam, 1964) spent much of his youth in Curaçao. After a career in advertising, he devoted himself to documentary and filmmaking.
Quote from Pacheco Domacassé, which concerns "A nation that neglects
its history is a nation with no past, with no memory, unable to learn from mistakes in times past and unable to benefit from the achievements and glorious acts of former generations."
