Eo, a grey donkey with melancholic eyes and a curious spirit, begins his life as a circus performer before escaping on a trek across the Polish and Italian countryside. During his travels, he encounters an eclectic cast of characters, including a countess, a young Italian priest and a riotous Polish football team. Eo’s journey 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.

OK, but why? A simple concept handled as one expects, without any fresh or stimulating flourishes. The synopsis above sums it up nicely, after watching this 86-minute film I don't feel I have a richer experience than after reading those two sentences. (56th KVIFF)

That people are cruel to each other and to their animal companions today and every day, we know, it's nothing new under the sun, so I'm glad that Jerzy Skolimowski was at least conscious and didn't stretch his film unnecessarily for more than an hour and a half. If only other festival filmmakers had the same amount of sense… [KVIFF 2022]
