Juan Rodriguez was one of the first men to circumnavigate the globe, and five hundred years later, John Rodrigo was about to follow in his ancestors footsteps.

First, he has to overcome his fear of water and get across the Atlantic. Rolling a cigar on the airplane from tobacco leaves his father left him and chewing on a precious family heirloom does the trick.

John arrives in Seville, the first leg of his journey, where he attempts to fulfill his fathers wishes to spread his ashes over the city. But the locals seem to be conspiring against him. The manager of the apartment building John is staying at, the cleaning lady, the cab driver and the two men in the red Fiat 500 may or may not be spying on him.

John hopes to escape their prying eyes at a nearby cafe. Its not long before he becomes embroiled in a long-standing feud between the owner of the five-hundred-year-old establishment and the mysterious inhabitant of the derelict building on the other side of the fence.

John finds it increasingly difficult to distinguish between fantasy and reality, as the unique magic of Seville works its charm on him while driving him to the brink of madness.

The only person that can provide some aid and comfort is his girlfriend back in New York. After all, she planned the entire trip to Spain. So why did she abandon him moments before departure, and why is she refusing to join him on his adventure around the world?
