For thousands of years, tall mountains and thick forests have hidden the African country of Wakanda from the world. Using vibranium, the world's strongest metal, Wakanda is now also protected by its technology. After his father's death, T'Challa returns there to take his place as king. But then deadly challengers to his position appear. Can he protect his country from them? And when the fighting ends, will he still be king?
