Overview

Get to know the legendary European explorer with an impossible mission in this retelling of the myth of Ponce de Leon (Michael York). Executive producer Shelley Duvall plays host to viewers young and old alike who are eager to learn about de Leon's search for the fountain of youth. This is no ordinary educational series, however; instead, it's a show infused with good humor, one that mines the absurdity of de Leon's quixotic quest.

“The film IEL is essentially a social commentary, with a generous serving of humour. However, certainly not slapstick but the kind of humour the viewer has to derive himself with its own set of idiosyncrasies. My attempt is to represent serious topics in the garb of comedy, which makes them more digestible"
