The Donkey of Zigliara

1971 · 104 min

A gentle, folksy comedy of small-village squabbles, easy to watch and mildly amusing rather than laugh-out-loud.

Overview
Maddalena finds that her donkey has reappeared after being missing for months. However, on the same day, a donkey disappears in a neighboring village. The unfortunate coincidence leads to "war" between the two villages.
