1560 yılında, efsanevi altın ülkesi El Dorado’yu bulmak amacıyla İspanyol “kâşif”ler And dağlarını aşmaktadırlar. Aralarında komutan yardımcısı Don Lope de Aguirre’nin de bulunduğu bir keşif kolu Don Pedro de Ursua başkanlığında yola çıkar. Yerli kölelerin kılavuzluğunda, önce dağlarda ardından haritalarda gösterilmemiş bir nehirde, sallarla sürdürülen yolculuk büyük kayıplara yol açar. Yiyecekleri, salları, mühimatları ve adamları telef olur; artık görünürde nehir ve bataklıktan başka fethedilecek bir şey kalmamıştır. Askerler görünmeyen ellerin attığı ok ve mızraklara hedef olmaktadır. Ursua keşfe son vererek kampa geri dönmeye karar verir. Aguirre ise nehri takip ederek zafere doğru yürümeleri gerektiğini savunur. Ursua yardımcısının zincire vurulmasını emredince Aguirre ve yandaşları isyan ederler. Aguirre komutayı ele aldığında, kimse ona karşı çıkmaya cesaret edemez.
