EO (2022)


“Did I just save you, or have I stolen you? I hope you are not a criminal.”

Directed by: Jerzy Skolimowski
Cinematography by: Michal Dymek

Plot:
The mostly sad, somewhat surreal adventures of a donkey separated from its loving owner at the circus.

Reasons to watch:
Alternating between dreamlike and nightmarish, emotional subjectivity and detached objectivity, Jerzy Skolimowski proves that at 85 years old, he still hasn’t lost his edge, immersing the viewer in his evocative impressionism, painterly compositions, and innovative visual sequences. And if that’s not enough for you, EO also features a really cute ass.

Where to watch:
The Criterion Channel
