In her intimate and visually striking documentary, director Dea Gjinovci turns the camera on her own family, exploring the profound bond between her father, Asllan Gjinovci, and their aging donkey in the rugged mountains of Kosovo. As the family patriarch prepares to sell the beloved animal, the film becomes a poignant meditation on tradition, sacrifice, and the quiet beauty found in a life of labor. Through lyrical imagery and raw, personal moments, Dea Gjinovci captures the tension between her father’s practical decision and the emotional weight it carries for herself and her brother, Leart Gjinovci. The arrival of a young filmmaker, Kit Vincent, adds an unexpected layer to the story, challenging the family to see their own lives through new eyes. With a gentle, observational tone, this documentary transcends its simple premise to ask universal questions about what we value, what we let go, and how the most ordinary creatures can hold the deepest meaning.
