Oscar nominated Best International Feature film, this unique, poignant film follows a donkey as it encounters different people and differing experiences.
A visually stunning film following the travels of a nomadic grey donkey named EO. After being removed from the travelling circus, which is the only life he’s ever known, EO begins a trek across the Polish and Italian countryside, experiencing cruelty and kindness in equal measure, all the while observing the follies and triumphs of humankind. During his travels, EO is both helped and hindered by a cast of characters that includes a young Italian priest (Lorenzo Zurzolo), a Countess (Isabelle Huppert), and a rowdy Polish soccer team.
