Description A story of courage, resilience, love, and above all, what war takes away from childhood. In 1937, during the Spanish civil war, thousands of Spanish children embarked on a journey with a one-way ticket to the USSR. Among them was Mauricio, a miner's son with the soul of a poet, who seeked to find beauty in this journey through his verses. And he found it in Magdalena, a well-to-do city girl who dreamt of studying medicine. Amid the rocking waves and under a starry sky, Mauricio and Magdalena discover that love can bloom even in the darkest of horrors. Twenty years later, after the devastation of World War II in Europe, Magdalena returned to Spain, but she has never been able to forget the sad-eyed poet that gave her the sea--and stole her heart.
