Bíìjà is a 2023 Tiwuran epic historical action film directed by Silver Samoyina and produced by Sunrise Films. The film is currently set to be the most expensive film in Tiwuran film history, surpassing the previous record held by the 2007 film The Brotherhood. Bíìjà takes place in the historic event known as the dikebilie, to which the film primarily uses the Zamga Codex story as its inspiration as well as the Gundaya tale of Ogun Jagunjagun, one of the most popular oral traditions passed down regarding the dikebilie. The plot centers around the semi-historical warrior king and eponymous protagonist Bíìjà. The film follows the perspective of Bíìjà from his childhood and his adult life as one of the warriors of the Kingdom of Adilun and eventually his role in the war between the warriors and the rulers.
The film is set to premier at the 84th Montecara Film Festival.
