The True Don Quixote

Before a great story can be told, it must be lived.

Four hundred years in the making, The True Don Quixote brings Cervantes’ classic tale to contemporary life, plopped in the wilds of Louisiana. Lonely, unemployed and adrift, Danny Kehoe (Tim Blake Nelson), escapes so far into the stories of medieval knights that he loses himself completely in their wonderous tales.

Believing he is a great knight, he straps on his cardboard armor, grabs a sword and, with his loyal squire Sancho (Jacob Batalon) by his side, embarks on a quest to find glory, slay monsters, and spread hope all across the neighborhood. What could possibly go wrong?
