Rodrigo (Carlos Fuentes) and Quintero (Bud Spencer) are shipwrecked at the coast of Mexico - and are hailed as gods by the local tribes who have never seen blond hair (and later, neither cannons nor horses). When an army of 500 arrives under command of Cortes, the conquistador decides to fight an empire, burning the ships behind him to march towards the capital of the Aztecs and their king Moctezuma (Manuel Ojeda).
A mediocre historical movie with poorly staged battle scenes, wisely focusing its attention on a love story between Rodrigo and Tizcuitl (Ursula Murayama) instead. Screen legend Bud Spencer, by then around 70 years old, plays the best friend of the hero. Still a weird choice to appear in this rather small production.
