An elder actor, Jean‑Luc, lands the dream role of Don Quixote in a contemporary Cervantes adaptation meant to be his farewell to the stage. As rehearsals strain his failing body and memory, he masks lapses while hallucinations and vertigo encroach. The company hires an understudy, and Jean‑Luc’s fragile psyche slips into an obsessive paranoia, blurring performance and reality. Poetic and unsettled, the film observes ageing, identity and the theatrical self with haunting intimacy.
In the presence of the movie team.
