White Cargo

"I am TONDELAYO"

A British rubber plantation executive in early World War II Africa reminisces about coming to the Congo in 1910. He recounts the tense triangle involving seasoned station superintendent Harry Witzel, newly arrived manager Langford, and Tondelayo, a stunning siren who craves silk and baubles. Witzel doubts Langford can handle the job, while Langford's determination and anger draw him to Tondelayo—partly for her beauty and wiles, partly to spite Witzel. Manipulation, jealousy, revenge, and responsibility shift alliances within the trio.
