Spoilers ahead

In 1844, the British Admiralty sends Sir William Walker, an agent provocateur, to the island of Queimada (literally “Burned” or “Burnt”), a Portuguese colony in the Lesser Antilles. The British government seeks to open the island to economic exploitation by the Antilles Royal Sugar Company, and Walker’s task is to ignite an uprising of enslaved Africans that will topple the Portuguese regime and replace it with a government that is pliant to white planters. From the moment he lands, he works to destabilize the old order and to create a situation where his employers can profit under a new regime.
