EO
EO, a melancholic donkey, is the centerpiece for an exploration of identity and attachment, the roulette wheel of life's experiences, the moral landscape of good and bad, and the resilience to fight. –Marc Hauser
“Legendary director Jerzy Skolimowski directs one of his most free and visually inventive films yet, following the travels of a nomadic gray donkey named EO. EO’s journey across the Polish and Italian countryside speaks to the world around us, an equine hero boldly pointing out societal ills, and serving as warning to the dangers of neglect and inaction, all while on a quest for freedom.”
