Set in January 1964 in Tanganyika, the story unfolds amidst a military mutiny in Dar es Salaam, triggered by grievances over pay and promotions. The inexperienced government, led by President Nyerere, faces chaos as regional instability complicates their situation, with neighboring Zanzibar, Uganda, and Kenya all grappling with their own crises. With no local allies available, the fledgling nation must seek assistance from Britain to navigate this tumultuous period in its early independence.
