Robert Bresson's film has something extraordinary. The protagonist is an ordinary donkey. The life of the donkey under the lens is refracted and magnified by the relationship between the characters who have dealt with it several times. Bresson narrates concisely and transitions slowly, and explains the plot sparingly. The plot between the shots is blank. It is necessary for the viewer to keep an eye on the characters in the front and back of the plot. The changes in the characters' speech will be connected by themselves, and then they will be integrated. In addition, there is very little dialogue in the film, and the donkey is the main thread interspersed, witnessing the right and wrong in the world, love, hatred and grievances. The death after being displaced from the lungs seems to be an accident, but it is actually inevitable due to the sinister world.

Recently, I was watching [Little Donkey and Me] Europeans especially like to use donkeys as a mirror of themselves, probably because of the fateful tragedy of beasts and human beings, and extended some sighs of holy fools. This is a typical concept-first movie. People control the fate of donkeys, and people cannot escape the ubiquitous shackles of fate.
