In Caroline Vignal’s irresistible French comedic road movie MY DONKEY, MY LOVER & I, Laure Calamy (Call My Agent), in a Best Actress César Award-winning performance, is the delightfully zany Antoinette, a heart-broken schoolteacher who impulsively goes on a six day hike to follow her lover, accompanied by a cantankerous donkey named Patrick. Antoinette’s plans for a vacation with her married lover, Vladimir (Benjamin Lavernhe), are upended when his wife (Olivia Côte) books a surprise hiking trip. On an impulse, Antoinette heads to the same mountainous region of the Cévennes National Park where Vladimir and his family are headed, with a hiking itinerary inspired by Robert Louis Stevenson’s classic 1878 memoir Travels with a Donkey in the Cévennes. Completely unversed in the ways of the wilderness, Antoinette forges quick bonds with Patrick and several offbeat fellow travelers, as she poignantly and uproariously stumbles towards self-revelation and independence.
