  • "En septembre 1761, le Zong, un bateau anglais, quitte les côtes d'Afrique à destination de la Jamaïque avec 470 esclaves à bord. A la suite d'une épidémie, 60 esclaves meurent et le capitaine décide de jeter par-dessus bord une partie importante de sa "marchandise" pour toucher l'assurance. Mintah réussit à remonter à bord. Parmi les siens, elle est prise pour un fantôme."
