At the heart of the film's story are XNUMX-year-old Alfonso, the great-great-grandson of the famous Don Quixote, and his three imaginary bunny friends. When his hometown is threatened by a powerful storm capable of destroying everything in its path, Alfonso is joined by Pancho (Sancho Panza's great-great-granddaughter) and Victoria. Together they have decided to save their beloved city of La Mancha and along the way Alfonso discovers the power of friendship and finds his first love.
"Quixote is a family film that addresses universal and contemporary themes such as friendship and relationships. Just like Don Quixote, with a little imagination, anything can be possible. Using physical humor and a subtext, we hope to be able to appeal to both younger and older audiences, ”said Thorsten Wegener, executive producer and director of commercial operations at Studio 100 Film.
