A historical saga about the construction of the Panama Canal. It is meant to be a marvel of progress, a testament that the future has arrived. But the canal will not only connect the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, but will...
also divide people into two camps: opponents and supporters of change. On opposite sides are a father and son. Francisco, a local fisherman, sees a threat. His son Omar sees an opportunity. Panama becomes a magnet for a diverse array of people. Ada Banting, a brave sixteen-year-old girl from Barbados, hopes to seize her chance in Panama to earn money for her sister's surgery. John Oswald is drawn to the country by a thirst for exploration: he is a scientist who believes he can tackle malaria. Until his wife gets sick.
