Roxie Theatre Sun, Jun 4, 2017 5:01 PM

As a synonym for stupidity and as an object of derision, donkeys have toiled for human beings since the invention of work. But have we really just mirrored our own, worst sides in the stupid and noisy animals? This philosophical visual essay narrated by Willem Defoe makes an attempt to overcome man?s egocentric way of seeing the world and our fellow creatures.
