English Summary:
Christopher Columbus: The Discovery is a 1992 American historical adventure film directed by John Glen. It was the last project developed by the father and son production team of Alexander and Ilya Salkind (best known for the Superman films that star Christopher Reeve in the title role). The film follows events after the fall of the Emirate of Granada (an Arab principality which was located in the south of Spain), and leads up to the voyage of Columbus to the New World in 1492.
Its behind-the-scenes history involved an elaborate series of financial mishaps, which later brought about an emotional falling-out between Alexander and Ilya; as a frustrated Alexander would later lament in an interview with the Los Angeles Times, "I know, after this, that I'll never make movies again.

A megözvegyült Kolumbusz öt év hajózás után visszatér Genovába, hogy beszámoljon fantasztikus felfedezéséről, miszerint kézzel megmunkált uszadékfa sodródott a tengernek abból az irányából, ahol mindeddig azt hitték, hogy csak víz van. Kolumbusz kínai hajósok és Polo beszámolói alapján új számításokat végez, s rájön, hogy az óceán áthajózható, melynek másik felén India vár rá. Expedíciójához azonban nem talál pártfogót, elutasításra talál mind a portugál, mind a francia királynál. A spanyol uralkodónő, Izabella azonban, sikeres keresztesháborúja után, hajlandó támogatni az utat...
