‘EO’ and the donkey that enchanted Cannes | movie review
"Eo" follows life through the eyes of the eponymous donkey as he experiences life and conflict in the human world
This review was originally published out of the 2022 Cannes Film Festival.
“Eo” doesn’t have a plot, little dialogue and, oh, the protagonist is a depressed donkey that wishes he was a horse, but this weird little movie is irresistible. Sure, its lead is a donkey, but it is as human as it gets. Constructed from our hero donkey’s journey away and back again, “Eo” meditates on loneliness, human nature, and empathy.
Full review coming soon.
