SYNOPSIS:
Marlow is an ambitious and adventurous sailor who is employed by an English trading company and sent to an African colony. There, he travels up the river, visiting the trading stations who barter for ivory with the natives. Along his journey he is told about a man named Kurtz, whose station is the one furthest up the river and deep in the African jungle. Some talk of him in awe, others in admiration, but they all seemingly fear him. As Marlow gets closer and closer to Kurtz, he understands that the man has gone insane and is now doing the most horrible and blasphemous deeds.
