Summary of the film

An incident on the British royal ship is described. Lieutenant William Bligh is assigned a mission by the British navy. Bligh must go to Tahiti as per his duty. When he got there he should take the seedlings of the labor trees and take them to Jamaica. It is the bitter Bounty of Bligh's ship that set out for this purpose. Her crew members go with her. The ship reaches Tahiti. Fletcher Christian, one of the aides of Captain Bligh, has a relationship with a girl from the locals there. They take the saplings of the labor tree and set off again. Many of the crew members are dissatisfied with Bligh's management. The reason for his dissatisfaction is that Bligh has a despotic character and has strict rules that he wants to be followed on board. It considers great punishments even in very small crimes.
