When Jim, a young vendor seaman, joins a dispatch hauling Muslims to Mecca, he's flush with heroic daydreams. But after just a few days and nights aboard, the Patna visits something in the night and begins to defend myself against water. In an essential moment that testing his courage, Jim cowers and abandons dispatch rather than risk his life to save lots of the pilgrims. Tried for shameful dereliction of obligation, the guilt-ridden Englishman models forth to make amends for his history in the distant place of Patusan. As the curious Captain Marlow now makes an attempt to understand Jim's record through various fractured narratives, Jim becomes described by the stories of others - some true, some invented, and all inescapable.
