Director: Fabio Segatori

Cast: Alessio Boni, Fiorenzo Mattu, Marcello Fonte, Ángela Molina, Galatea Ranzi

Drama
Wounded during the brutal clash at Lepanto, Miguel de Cervantes lies delirious in a Messina hospital, fever and visions merging into one. Out of the smoke of incinerated books, Don Alonso Quijano emerges—a man unhinged by chivalric romances, reborn as the wandering knight Don Quixote. With the gullible Sancho Panza at his side, tempted by the promise of his own island, Quixote sets off on a wild crusade where roadside inns transform into castles and windmills loom as monstrous giants. Though mocked and crushed by heartless nobles and relentless defeats, his lunacy holds a startling purity: he fights only for justice and freedom, while the world sneers. Betrayed and broken, he is dragged home in a cage, unable to endure a life stripped of his ideals. As he breathes his last, the story dissolves back into the Sicilian night—where Cervantes, forged in war’s agony, gives birth to an enduring dream: the stubborn, beautiful quest for a freer humanity.
