Port of Seville, Spain, 1640. A group of people from very different origins embark on the ship Capitana. They are members of the upper class, adventurers, peasants, convicts, who have only one thing in common: the illusion of arriving in America, the promised land where they can make their dreams and ambitions come true.
Enriqueto, the proud owner of a splendid mustache, feels his heart divided between the kindly Manolita and the feckless Lilí. (A redubbed version of the Austrian film Immortal Melodies —Unsterbliche Melodien, 1935—, an operetta based on the life of the Austrian composer Johann Strauss, the Waltz King; with a new humorous plot and new music and songs. The original soundtrack was lost around 1949; only a 2014 subtitled version is preserved.)
