After a lifetime spent reading about knights, an eccentric old man sets off on a madcap adventure to become a knight-errant himself.
Together with his loyal servant, Sancho Panza, Don Quixote journeys through a world filled with illusions and dangers, where the nobility of dreams collides with harsh reality.
Armed with a lance, a sword, and a boundless imagination, Don Quixote plunges into heroic battles against windmills, confronts invisible giants, and dedicates his deeds to a lady he has never seen.
Director Alexandru Dabija offers a contemporary reinterpretation of the myth of Don Quixote, exploring the fragile borderlands between illusion and reality, and between idealism and pragmatism.
A performance full of charm and melancholy, in which Don Quixote turns his dreams into armor against reality. Text by: James Fenton based on the novel "Don Quixote" by Miguel Cervantes
