La Paloma. Sehnsucht. Weltweit plot

A journey on the wings of La Paloma, the most played song in the world (La Paloma is Spanish for pigeon). 2000 versions are known. Some say there are infinitely more. In Zanzibar it is played at the end of a wedding, in Romania during funerals. In Mexico it was the favorite song of the tragic Emperor Maximilian. Legend has it that as a last wish, he wanted to hear the song before he was executed. And in Auschwitz, Coco Schuman, the German swing master, was forced to play the song on the path to the gas chambers.
