In the 15th century, an ambitious Genoese navigator decides to challenge the limits of the known world and embark on a journey into the unknown. Christopher Columbus, driven by a mix of desperation and determination, seeks an alternative route to the East Indies, convinced that his discovery will transform history. With the support of the Catholic Monarchs of Spain, Columbus sets sail with three ships and a group of men willing to risk everything for glory and wealth.
As the voyage progresses, the journey becomes a testament to human audacity and the struggle against the adversities of the ocean.

Through majestic landscapes and an emotional backdrop, the story reveals Columbus's ambitions and mistakes, while the repercussions of his journey resonate in the history of humanity. The lesson becomes clear: conquest can lead to discoveries but also to the deepest tragedy. Has Columbus truly conquered what he sought, or has he unleashed a storm that will change the world forever?
