Magdana's Donkey by Tengiz Abuladze

6.10

This chamber drama is set in Georgia on the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries.

The foundling was fed, tended, and the moment the donkey opened its big, tender eyes, it was named “Lurdja”, which means “blue-eyed”. Surrounded by love and care, the donkey became a big help in the poor household. But this idyll was not to last long…
