The fantastical tale of Baron Munchausen's supposed travels with his crew of misfits. Expect ballooning to the moon, being swallowed by a whale, a dance with Venus and an escape from the Grim Reaper.

Directed by Monty Python star Terry Gilliam, this 1988 adventure-fantasy-comedy chronicles the tall tales of the 18th-century nobleman Baron Carl Friedrich von Munchausen. Being swallowed by a giant sea-monster and a trip to the moon are only the beginning of the Baron’s adventures, in his bid to save a town from defeat by the Turks.
