Story

John Truscott travels to Borneo to work with the Iban people as part of the British colonial government. Upon his arrival, he is given a 'sleeping dictionary,' an local woman named Selima who is meant to help him learn their language and culture. As they spend time together, John develops feelings for Selima despite knowing that relationships between locals and British officials are forbidden. Selima, unaware of John's feelings, considers him a friend. When John confesses his love to Selima, she is taken aback but reciprocates his affection. However, their relationship faces disapproval from both the local community and Henry Bullard, John's superior officer. Despite the warnings, they continue their secret affair until its discovery leads to dire consequences.
