Forming a unique team with Lucía (Ana Polvorosa, “Cable Girls”), a combative public official, and Jonas Pierce (Clarke Peters, “The Wire”), a brilliant American lawyer with a passion for old pirate tales, Álex sets out on the adventure of a lifetime, on which he learns about the importance of love, friendship and commitment to your own beliefs.
