The culmination of a trilogy of documentaries that have followed film director Terry Gilliam over a twenty-five-year period. Charting Gilliam's final, beleaguered quest to adapt Don Quixote, this documentary is a study of creative obsession. For over thirty years, Terry Gilliam has dreamed of creating a screen adaptation of Cervantes' masterpiece. The collapse of that infamous and ill-fated production only further cemented Gilliam's reputation as an idealist chasing an impossible dream.
