Fanatical missionary Nathan Price, along with his wife and daughters, leaves prosperous civilized America and goes to the Black Continent, to the jungles of the Belgian Congo, with a strong faith in God and with the hope that the Lord will help him convert the locals to Christianity. He preaches fiercely and passionately, but the natives are not at all eager to accept the gracious gifts. They tremblingly guard their shrines, honor the traditions of their ancestors, and continue to practice their wild, sometimes inhuman, rites.
But in Nathan Price's own family a rebellion is brewing: the family is unprepared for the hardships of life in a remote African village. Everything seems alien and frightening to them - the ominous, dark jungle, where at every turn death awaits them, people who meet them with a sullen silence, and even Nathan Price himself with his fanatical, knows no pity faith ...
