"My mother did not fight with a sword, she didn't have a shield, she wasn't the fittest person in the world but her heart was bigger than any human in the world,”

Siv says that he had to grieve his mother while celebrating being in a life-changing film. The actor describes himself as an ally to women and being a part of the film with dark-skinned women leads meant a lot to him. Siv explained:

"A lot of young girls will see themselves represented on the big screen, I don't think people understand how dark-skinned women are marginalised in society. The world has always made films around men's stories.”

Siv expressed that he's honoured to be a few men in the movie and did his utmost best for the role. He said:

“I am an ally. The film isn't about me. I'm really proud to do in my life. I try to be an ally as much as possible.”

Siv Ngesi shared a picture of himself at the Toronto Film Festival for the movie screening. Fans flooded his comments with congratulations on his international role in The Woman King.
