Turn-of-the-century Africa, Colonial traders driven by greed brave forbidden dangers to exploit the continent’s vast treasures. One of the traders is sea captain Marlow (Tim Roth, Reservoir Dogs), who penetrates the depths of the Congo’s streaming jungles in pursuit of the mysterious Mr. Kurtz (John Malkovich, In the Line of Fire), deranged chief of a remote trading station. Far from the sanctuary of civilized society, Marlow and Kurtz face each other and the dark truth about humanity and themselves. Nicolas Roeg (The Witches) directs this acclaimed adaptation of Joseph Conrad’s classic tale, the one that inspired Apocalypse Now, of the evil that lurks within the heart of man.
