Struggles and misadventures of Lope de Aguirre, with his enormous ambition at the forefront, in search of El Dorado.
For more than twenty years, Lope de Aguirre had been fighting and conquering for a king (Philip II) whom he did not even know when he joined the expedition organised by Ursúa. The aim of this adventure was to discover the country of El Dorado, which was supposed to be located at an unknown point on the Marañón River, now known as the Amazon. Ursúa's carelessness in governing the expedition, as well as other weaknesses, led Aguirre to seize power after Ursúa's death. The expedition was abandoned and Aguirre, appointed the new general, set out to return to Peru after disembarking at sea.
