EO

With his first film in seven years, legendary director Jerzy Skolimowski (Deep End, Moonlighting) directs one of his most free and visually inventive films to date. Following the travels of a curious Gray Sardinian donkey named EO. After being removed from the traveling circus, EO begins a trek across the Polish and Italian countryside, experiencing the highs and lows of society, all the while never for a moment losing his innocence. During his travels, EO is both helped and hindered by the people he meets including a young Italian priest (Lorenzo Zurzolo), a Countess (Isabelle Huppert), and a rowdy Polish soccer team that adopt him as their mascot.

Through stunning visuals including a cinema first ‘donkey vision’ and a haunting score, master filmmaker Jerzy Skolimowski invites the audience to see the world through the eyes of its four-legged perspective, exploring the good and bad of humanity through EO’s distinctive non- human perspective. The most highly honoured international film of the year, Skolimowski’s Cannes Jury Prize winning and Oscar nominated new film is a truly and significant and unique cinematic experience that demands to be seen.
