    Résumé:

    At an after-school program, a teacher named Stephen and a group of kids push together tables piled high with books so they can reimagine Don Quixote, the story of an idealistic dreamer from Spain who traveled around trying to right the world's wrongs, as the story of a group of modern-day kids from immigrant families in Brooklyn. The stories the kids write in class become a musical play, expressing the plight of today's immigrants and using Quixote as inspiration. And Sarah Sierra, once very shy, soon will play the leading role as Kid Quixote.
