Genoan navigator Christopher Columbus has a dream to find an alternative route to sail to the Indies, by traveling west instead of east, across the unchartered Ocean sea. After failing to find backing from the Portugese, he goes to the Spanish court to ask Queen Isabella and King Ferdinand for help. After surviving a grilling from the Head of the Spanish Inquisition Tomas de Torquemada, he eventually gets the blessing from Queen Isabella and sets sail in three ships to travel into the unknown. Along the way he must deal with sabotage from Portugese spies and mutiny from a rebellious crew.
Christopher Columbus: The Discovery is a 1992 historical adventure film following the Genoese navigator's quest to secure royal backing for his westward voyage to the Indies. The movie chronicles Columbus's journey from the Portuguese court to Queen Isabella and King Ferdinand of Spain, and his subsequent expedition across the Atlantic aboard three ships.
