Rome has now been changed to a modern African country where, amid much song and festivity, Julius Caesar accepts the ruler's crown,although a soothsayer warns him to beware the Ides of March. Embittered ex-colleague Cassius, envious of Caesar's new status, enlists the support of a group of conspirators,including the previously loyal Brutus, and they kill Caesar, whose adopted son Octavius and friend Mark Antony obtain revenge on the murderers.
