Standing Eagle is a chronicle of a life told by the protagonist himself. Through this astonishing monologue, the viewer is invited to delve into the impossible world of this 21st-century Don Quixote. An idealist who, after 30 years of dedication to an unattainable project, is now close to achieving his dream: a utopia beyond the line separating fiction from reality, the possible from the absurd, and delirium from imagination. Following Chronicles #1: Wojteck Kotowicz and Desert Chronicles, Chronicles #3: Laurence Burton is the third installment in this documentary series of portraits. Chronicles of autobiographies born from the desire to reconcile the lived experiences of "others" with one's own.
