Synopsis:
Against a background of war
breaking out in Europe and the Mexican fiesta Day of Death, we are
taken through one day in the life of Geoffrey Firmin, a British consul
living in alcoholic disrepair and obscurity in a small southern Mexican
town in 1939. The Consul's self-destructive behaviour, perhaps a
metaphor for a menaced civilization, is a source of perplexity and
sadness to his nomadic, idealistic half-brother, Hugh, and his ex-wife,
Yvonne, who has returned with hopes of healing Geoffrey and their broken
marriage.
