About this listen

The frigate Astrea leaves Spain for the Philippines in the late 1770s. Captain Alejandro Malaspina must bring the entering governor and his family to Manila. Lucia, the Governor's daughter is promised to the son of the exiting Governor. Astrea's Second Officer, Carlos is gravely wounded during a storm, and Pedro, Lucia's older brother and a student of medicine in Granada, heals his wounds. Lucia nurses Carlos. They fall in love. In Manila, the Franciscan sisters care for Carlos, and Lucia joins the convent rather than marry the despicable son of the exiting Governor.
