Writers who don't believe in reality?

I've seen the film Waking Life and I wonder what philosophies it's based upon. What philosophers wrote about ideas that are discussed in that film?

Pretty much all of the characters in the movie are real people speaking their real thoughts. Check out the transcript with the names of the people.

What do you mean?
Pessoa, maybe?

It's a terrible movie aimed at young teenagers who just discovered weed and think they're discovering deep philosophical truths when in actual fact they're giggling at squirrels. Please go away.

Why are you all so sour? The idea of living in a dream of a dead old woman is really interesting. I know the movie is somewhat shallow, but it's still interesting. I'm interested in reading philosophical theories about reality. What philosophers question reality? Who should I read that wrote about this subject? Why won't you guys help me? I'm just starting out, everyone has to start somewhere, I want to start with the subject of reality and about theories on what it could mean.

That's just one theory that's neither wrong nor right. I think reality is a subject that should not be taken for granted
