La última cena (The Last Supper)

During Holy Week at the end of the 18th century, a count visits his Havana sugar mill on a day a slave has run away. The count tells his cruel overseer, Don Manuel, to pick 12 slaves who will be guests at the count's table. Don Manuel objects, but to no avail. The twelfth guest is the recaptured runaway. During the dinner the count uses religious analogies to lecture his guests on the perfect happiness possible in slavery. They in turn tell stories and make requests. He promises no work on Good Friday, but he leaves early that morning and Don Manuel rouses the slaves for a long day of cutting cane. They rebel. Which side will the count take?
