Antoinette, a schoolteacher, is looking forward to her long planned summer holiday with her secret lover Vladimir, the father of one of her pupils. When learning that Vladimir cannot come because his wife organized a surprise trekking holiday in the Cévennes National Park with their daughter and a donkey to carry their load, Antoinette decides to follow their track, by herself, with Patrick, a protective donkey.

An Official Selection at the 2020 Cannes Festival, My Donkey, My Lover & I is a sunny romantic comedy that takes us to the majestic views of the Cévennes and a trail made popular by author Robert Louis Stevenson.
