EO

EO is a grey donkey, living in a travelling circus where he performs alongside his beloved owner Sandra. But when circumstances outside of his control separate him from his mistress and the only life he has ever known, EO begins an adventurous journey through the modern European countryside. Along the way he has many encounters and experiences ...Unfolding through a series of vignettes and intermittently told from EO’s innocent viewpoint,84-year old Polish writer-director Jerzy Skolimowski (Deep End,The Shout)exploits stunning cinematography and immersive sound design to create a bold, poetic fable-like story examining the ambiguous world we live in. The film was recently named 2022’s Best International Feature by the prestigious New York Film Critics Circle.

‘...no movie that I’ve seen this year has moved me as deeply, made me feel as optimistic about cinema or engaged me with such intellectual vigor as EO...’

Manohla Dargis , The New York Times

‘...EO may be one of the greatest movies ever made about the spirit of animals, as much as we can know it.’
