Sir Alan is a wealthy planter who comes to Jamaica to take over his family's estate. He is immediately smitten with Mafoota, and they begin a passionate romance. However, their relationship is forbidden, as interracial relationships are taboo in Jamaican society at the time.
Despite the odds, Mafoota and Sir Alan are determined to be together. They keep their relationship a secret, but it is eventually discovered by Sir Alan's family and friends. They are pressured to end their relationship, but they refuse.
