EO

AroView: Veteran Polish director Jerzy Skolimowski returns with this Cannes Jury Prize-winner — a unique, visually expressive and sometimes bleak portrait of modern Europe through the eyes of an adorable, innocent donkey.

“A potent emotional charge, very contemporary eco-consciousness, and film-making that at its best fairly sizzles in its strangeness mark out EO as an animal film that stands defiantly on its own hooves.” ~Jonathan Romney, Screen Daily

“A damning polemic on our relationship to other intelligent species — as free labor, food and companions — as seen through the dewy, wide eyes of a donkey whom we come to adore.” ~Peter Debruge, Variety
