Espero

In the tradition of Oliver Twist and The Painted Bird, Espero follows the story of a small African boy sold into slavery in the port of Lisbon at the turn of the 16th century. After a privileged upbringing in the home of a prominent Spanish physician, Espero is abruptly thrown into the life of a fugitive among the underworld in Seville. With only his troubled destiny as his guide, Espero, working as servant to an unpredictable drunkard, is forced to accompany an expedition to the uncharted land of La Florida in the New World.
