The story

In 1787, the HMS Bounty sets sail from England for Tahiti under the command of William Bligh. His mission is to collect a shipload of breadfruit saplings and transport them to Jamaica, in the hopes that they can be used as cheap food for plantation slaves. Bligh is an experienced seaman and a competent officer, but also arrogant, dismissive of his green crew, and eager to complete the unpleasant voyage as quickly as possible.
