Basada en hechos reales ocurridos en Oyo, una antigua ciudad yoruba de Nigeria, en 1946, la obra del ganador del Premio Nobel Wole Soyinka narra cómo Simon Pilkings, un bienintencionado oficial de distrito, interviene para evitar el suicidio ritual del jefe yoruba, Elesin. La obra aborda temas clásicos de conflicto cultural, toma de decisiones trágicas y las mentalidades psicológicas de individuos y grupos.
