00:00Everyone knows this story, but not everyone knows the message behind it.
00:03King Mufasa and Sarabi have just had Simba, who will be the next king.
00:07The wise old Rafiki shows it to the kingdom and everyone celebrates.
00:10Except for one, Scar, who first says that life isn't fair.
00:13Scar is Mufasa's brother and what he wants most is to be king, something that will no longer be possible,
00:17unless he can get rid of his brother and nephew, and that's exactly what he plans to do.
00:21A few years pass and Simba is now a cub, longing to be king and spending his time singing about all the things he will do when he grows up.
00:26One day Mufasa climbs King Rock with his son and shows him the lands of the kingdom.
00:29He tells him that everything he touches in the light is part of him.
00:32But Simba sees a place of shadows and asks about it.
00:34Mufasa replies that it is beyond the kingdom and without any explanation tells him that he should never go.
00:39The Pride Lands reflect Simba's inner self throughout the story.
00:43In everyone there is light and darkness, goodness and evil, joy and pain.
00:46The problem with rejecting and ignoring the shadow part is that you run the risk of being dominated by it,
00:51and this is exactly what will happen next.
00:53Simba is eager to prove he is brave and prove he is fit for the throne,
00:57So Scar takes advantage and tells him that only the brave are able to reach that place of shadows.
01:03Which is right, but by rejecting this place without any explanation,
01:06Mufasa gives Simba no tools to deal with the unpleasantness, only to walk away.
01:10So Simba goes with his friend Nala to this gloomy place that is really hyena land,
01:15animals that were enemies of the lions and whom Scar recruited to carry out his plan in exchange for privileges in his reign.
01:21At that moment, three hyenas come out and Simba and Nala flee, but are cornered.
01:24The hyenas approach and Mufasa appears and saves them.
01:28Scar's plan failed, but he doesn't plan on giving up.
01:31So on another occasion he tells Simba that he has a surprise for him and takes him to a canyon
01:34where under a tree he tells him that he must wait.
01:37Scar leaves and gives the signal to the hyenas to scare some animals and create a stampede.
01:41The uncontrolled animals head towards Simba.
01:44Scar feigns concern and warns Mufasa that his son is in danger.
01:47Mufasa immediately runs into the stampede where Simba's life hangs from a branch.
01:51The Lion King gets among the out-of-control animals and manages to get Simba to safety,
01:55but he is dragged until he manages to climb some rocks with his claws.
01:58He asks his brother Scar for help so he doesn't fall, but Scar betrays him and throws him off.
02:03The stampede ends, Simba goes down to look for his father, but finds his body motionless.
02:07He asks him to get up, but he doesn't respond.
02:10His father amputated.
02:11But Scar also wants to get rid of his nephew,
02:14So he goes over and tells him that Mufasa died because of him.
02:17And he advises him to flee and never return.
02:20Simba listens and runs away, and then Scar orders the hyenas to go after him to kill him,
02:24but the puppy manages to escape.
02:26Now without Mufasa and Simba, the uncle and the hyenas, or darkness, take over the kingdom.
02:30We can see the plot of this film as a story about trauma
02:33and the path to healing and self-realization.
02:36Scar means scar, a mark left on the skin after a wound.
02:39This character embodies Simba's wound,
02:41a festering, infected wound of guilt over his father's death,
02:45who has now taken over the lands of the kingdom, that is, its interior.
02:49And Simba's inability to confront him prevents his progress and growth.
02:53Simba has been found in a desert fainted by a meerkat named Timon
02:56and a wild boar named Pumba.
02:58They decide to take him and save him.
03:00Simba wakes up and tells them he doesn't want to go home because he did something terrible.
03:04And Timon and Pumbaa present their philosophy of life to Hakuna Matata,
03:07which is basically about not worrying about anything.
03:10Next to them, Simba has a lot of fun and is distracted,
03:12but he does things that are not in keeping with his essence, like eating worms.
03:15When Simba flees the Pride Lands, he flees from himself,
03:18of his darkness and his feelings and begins to act differently than he really is.
03:23According to him, with Hakuna Matata he forgets about everything,
03:26but he's really just distracting himself from his pain,
03:29which will not make it disappear, but will only postpone its departure.
03:32Years later, Simba grows up and is now a full-grown lion.
03:35In the Old Kingdom, Scar brought hyenas with him and had lionesses hunted to feed them.
03:40Darkness dominates the lands of the kingdom and food and water are scarce.
03:43because the food chain was modified,
03:45which means that deep down, Simba's interior is dark because of his inauthenticity.
03:51Because of this scarcity, Nala leaves the boundaries of the kingdom to search for food.
03:54Pumbaa finds him and tries to hunt him down, but Simba comes out to defend him.
03:57They fight, but he soon realizes that she is his childhood friend.
04:01Nala tells him about the precarious situation of the kingdom
04:03and that he must return and take his place as king because he is the only hope.
04:07He is the only hope because only he can change himself.
04:10The amount of light one discovers in one's life
04:12is proportional to the amount of darkness you are willing to face.
04:15But Simba tells him he can't go back.
04:18Later, Simba crosses paths with the wise old Rafiki
04:20who tells him that his father is still alive inside him.
04:22At that, Simba has a vision of his father who tells him that he has forgotten who he is,
04:25that must return to take its place and must never forget to be authentic.
04:29Simba is confused because he feels that he is no longer the same as before.
04:32and if he returns he will have to face the past he has been running away from for so long.
04:37And then Rafiki gives him a big lesson.
04:39He tells her that change is good, that the past can hurt,
04:42but he can decide to run away from it or learn.
04:45And this reminds me of the African concept of Sankofa
04:47represented by a bird turning backwards taking an egg from its back
04:50and that wants to express that it is not wrong to go back to the past for what you have forgotten.
04:54Learning from the past ensures a better future
04:56Because learning from yesterday enables us to build better versions of ourselves.
05:01To understand our present and improve our future, we must know and confront our past.
05:06You don't escape anguish, you face it.
05:09Simba needs to face his past which means fighting Scar,
05:13the emotional mark that has been telling you all this time
05:15that the bad things that have happened to him have been his fault.
05:19To return and take his place, Simba must face the ugly darkness.
05:23So, Simba decides to return, along with his friends he arrives at the kingdom
05:26and they come across a place that looks like a cemetery.
05:29Simba approaches Pride Rock and watches as Scar hits his mother.
05:32because the blame for the food shortage.
05:34Simba becomes enraged and confronts his uncle.
05:36Realizing that it is his nephew, Scar, that is, his wound,
05:39He tells Simba to confess to everyone the truth about Mufasa's death.
05:42and Simba, who still believes it was his fault, confesses that he is responsible.
05:47Scar calls his nephew a murderer and corners him until Simba is left hanging from Pride Rock.
05:51just like his father before he died.
05:53At that moment, lightning strikes the trees and starts a fire.
05:56Seeing Simba hanging, Scar grabs him by the arms.
05:58and before letting him fall, he confesses that he was actually the one who killed his father.
06:03Hearing this, Simba gathers his strength and jumps on Scar.
06:06and makes him confess before everyone that he was the one who killed Mufasa.
06:09At that moment, lionesses and hyenas engage in combat while Scar tries to flee.
06:13Simba catches up to him and corners him.
06:15The uncle tries to convince his nephew that it was all the hyenas' idea.
06:17and that they are the real enemy.
06:19The hyenas hear this and become enraged.
06:22At that, Scar throws ashes in Simba's eyes.
06:24and attacks him taking advantage of the fact that he cannot see.
06:26But Simba eventually breaks free from the false idea.
06:28that he is to blame for his own trauma.
06:30He says to Scar,
06:31Everything you've told me has been a lie.
06:34Scar throws himself at him
06:35and Simba with a kick makes him fall among the hyenas,
06:37which, furious because he called them enemies,
06:40They attack him and kill him.
06:41Simba finally managed to destroy the wound
06:43that had terrified him for so long.
06:46At that moment it starts to rain and the fire goes out.
06:48The wood is dead, but this also means a space to build something new.
06:52The time has come, Simba climbs onto Pride Rock and roars.
06:55Simba did what his father never could,
06:57face the darkness and therefore his kingdom will be better.
07:00Time passes, the lands come back to life,
07:02everything is in harmony.
07:04This reflects how healthy and complete Simba's interior is.
07:06having recognized and accepted the darkness
07:08and having reconnected with their loved ones again
07:11that are important to him.
07:12Now he is ready to bring a new life into the world,
07:14since he is stronger thanks to the tests he has overcome.
07:18Simba and Nala have a daughter
07:19and at the end Rafiki introduces her to everyone.
07:22And in this story there is also a message that almost no one sees.
07:24When Scar says life isn't fair
07:26because he can never be king,
07:27reflects an annoyance with the social hierarchy
07:29which puts him in an inferior position to his nephew,
07:32apparently less deserving.
07:33Maybe Scar has a point.
07:34The rigid social hierarchies in the film
07:36They do not allow progress.
07:38You are born in a place and you are wrong if you want to change that.
07:40Little Simba is acting a bit irritating.
07:43and immature at the beginning.
07:44He sings about how excited he is to be king
07:45to be the center of attention
07:47and how he practices looking down on others.
07:50Scar correctly identifies a problem,
07:52but the detail is that deep down
07:54He doesn't seem to care much about inequality,
07:56but he just wants to be on top himself.
07:58Paulo Freire says
07:59the oppressed instead of fighting for liberation
08:01tend to become oppressors
08:03and the problem is not solved.
08:05But something Mufasa teaches an immature Simba
08:08to prepare him to be king
08:09It's that there are more things that unite us than separate us,
08:11while the food chain that governs our daily lives
08:14puts some above and others below,
08:16the reality is that some are no more than others.
08:19Mufasa tells him
08:20everything you see coexists in a delicate balance.
08:23We are all connected
08:24and as a king you must understand that
08:26and respect all creatures
08:28from the little ant
08:29even the antelopes.
