"With passages from Don Quijote that connect seamlessly with the times in which we survive, a delightful cast of actors make us partakers of the eternal quest of man and his dreams and chimeras in contrast to what some call reality ... " Jaime Alejandre

 

Accompanied by live music, a group of twelve African share their journey from Africa to Europe, in parallel with the story of Don Quixote. 

 

Don Quixote leaves his house with the idea of performing feats. This idea is caused by the reading of stories that have nothing to do with reality. The parallel with the emigrant today appears to us evident ; the journey to reach a dream, with the idea of ​​conquering the promised land, caused largely by false hopes and rumors about what life is like in Europe, and the fierce encounter with reality.

 

Don Quixote is also a description of that period through a kaleidoscope of characters and situations, which allows us, thanks to a game of parallels, to reflect on today's society .
