The narrative centers on the Magdalena River in Colombia, symbolizing the connection between the country's tumultuous history and its present challenges. British writer Michael Jacobs embarks on a minimalist journey by tugboat, grappling with his love for Colombia and his mother's declining health. His travels lead him to encounter the legendary Gabriel Garcia Marquez, whose own struggles with memory echo the river's significance. When Jacobs is captured by quirky FARC guerillas, the line between reality and magical realism blurs, prompting deep reflections on adventure and life's inherent futility.
