What is Don Quixote about?
Based on the book by Miguel de Cervantes, Don Quixote tells the tale of one man's quest to become a chivalrous knight. After reading book after book about the brave knights of old, Don Quixote decides it's his turn. With his faithful servant, Sancho Panza, by his side the pair set out across medieval Spain, vanquishing the crooks and defending the poor. But, after each calamitous encounter, Don Quixote's beloved stories seem to become further away from the truth.
