POL/ITA | 2022 | dir. Jerzy Skolimowski, with Sandra Drzymalska, Mateusz Kościukiewicz, Tomasz Organek, Isabelle Huppert
The world is a mysterious place when seen through the eyes of an animal. Inspired by Robert Bresson’s 1966 film Au Hasard Balthazar, Jerzy Skolimowski’s film Eo follows the journey of a grey donkey with melancholic eyes, as he meets good and bad people along the way, including Isabelle Huppert, and endures the wheel of fortune that randomly turns his luck into disaster and his despair into unexpected happiness. Winning the Jury Prize at the 2022 Cannes Film Festival, the film is Poland’s entry to the 2023 Academy Awards.
Eo has been nominated for the 2023 Academy Awards in the Best International Feature category.
