Lost in La Mancha
2002 · Documentary · 89 min. · United Kingdom

It may be the first 'un-making of' documentary. In a genre that exists to hype films before their release, "Lost in La Mancha" presents an unexpected twist: it is the story of a film that does not exist. Instead of a sanitised glimpse behind the scenes, it offers a look at the harsher realities of filmmaking. Keith Fulton and Louis Pepe witness the successes as well as the failures of Terry Gilliam's adaptation of Don Quixote.
