@_diogogomes Following update on the accusations: https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/portugal-rejects-claim-terry-gilliams-don-quixote-shoot-harmed-convent-1018501
tl:dr They were judged wrong.
@_diogogomes Ukbar Filmes, the Portuguese production company used at the location shooting, acknowledged that there was some damage, which was catalogued by the convent officials who monitored the filming.
The damage included six modern roof tiles and four small chips in masonry, which will be restored, as stated by Ukbar Filmes to the Associated Press. However, the trees were planted during the making of another film and officials consented to their removal at the end of the shoot.
@jmrbrown They're lying. If they didn't damage why the replacement.
For everyone that do not believe, come to Portugal and see with your own eyes.
@353sqmijy From wiki: On 4 July 2017, Portuguese authorities ruled that Gilliam's crew was only responsible for "insignificant damage", adding that the accusations "lacked rigor and revealed a lack of scientific knowledge".

The director and the producer should be arrested. In order to shoot the film, they destroyed part of the monument that is Unesco's patrimony.
They broke ancient stones, cut trees without permission to make fires with twenty meters ...
It was a total disrespect, destroy world heritage just for the purpose of making money ....
I recommend everyone, do a search on Google or translate Portuguese news on the subject.
