If you can see past the heavy-handed religious overtones you will encounter an inspired and deeply intelligent Bresson classic.

The film follows the life of a donkey from birth to death, while all the time living it the dignity of being itself--a dumb beast, noble in its acceptance of a life over which it has no control.

Es una pelicula muy dura. Demasiado pesimista y ver el maltrato y vida miserable de un pobre animalito tan puro es horrible.
Hubiera preferido no verla Espero que el burrito en el filmaje no haya sido realmente agredido
