| Summary: | The story of a young, idealistic Joseph Conrad as he captains a steamer in the Congo in 1890. He is part of a mission sent by King Leopold of Belgium to develop the territory and teach the savages that live there the ways of civilization. For Conrad, the reality is different and this experience will change him completely and lead to his future novel, The Heart of Darkness, written nine years later.
