Synopsis
The world is a mysterious place, especially seen through the eyes of an animal. EO, a grey donkey with melancholy eyes, meets on its way good people and other not so good. EO gets to know joy and sorrow, and the wheel of fortune transforms, depending on the moment, its good luck into disaster, and its misery into unexpected happiness. But never, ever, does EO lose its innocence.
