The story

In 1787, the HMS Bounty sets sail from England for Tahiti under the command of William Bligh.

The voyage gets off to a difficult start when a sailor, John Mills, is severely flogged for accusing Bligh of stealing cheese from the ship's stores to the disgust of Acting Lieutenant Fletcher Christian.

When the Bounty reaches her destination, the crew revels in the easygoing life of the tropical paradise – and in the free-love practices of the Tahitian women.
