After being rejected by the King of Portugal, Magellan looks for another way to achieve his dream.
The Portuguese fleet cannot allow the expedition to succeed and will do everything possible to make it fail.
After almost a year's voyage, and without having found the passage, the crew mutinies against Magellan.
The joy of having found the the passage contrasts with the death and despair they encounter along the way.
The Mactans will have to ‘see the light' or face the guns and Magellan’s men.
Elcano makes a risky decision that will change the course of history.
