Jerzy Skolimowski - Poland - 2022 - 89 minuten - taal: Polish - ondertiteling: English

Unconventional, immersive road movie from veteran Polish director Jerzy Skolimowski featuring an escaped circus donkey as the main character. Winner of the Jury Prize at Cannes.

The world is a mysterious place when seen through the eyes of an animal. EO, a grey donkey with melancholic eyes, meets good and bad people on his life’s path, experiences joy and pain, endures the wheel of fortune randomly turn his luck into disaster and his despair into unexpected bliss. But not even for a moment does he lose his innocence.

Bravely updating Bresson with brilliant results, EO is a donkey-driven drama that’ll stubbornly stick with you long after the credits roll.
