      Barry Hertz Globe and Mail It is a well-known maxim in movie-making that any project can be improved by the presence of Willem Dafoe. Rated: 3/4 May 2, 2017 Full Review Norman Wilner NOW Toronto By letting us reach our own conclusions about the meanings of various interactions between people and beasts, the film creates space for a contemplation of animal consciousness and human responsibility. Rated: 4/5 Sep 28, 2017 Full Review Chelsea Phillips-Carr POV Magazine Do Donkeys Act is a remarkable work of anti-anthropocentrism, subverting human presumptions and power to glorify donkeys in a unique way. Sep 28, 2017 Full Review Liam Lacey Original Cin it's the footage of the donkeys themselves - as they enter sanctuaries, endure medical procedures, voice hair-raising hee-haws, and gaze at us - that leave the deepest impression. We can't help but identify with the animals' fear, curiosity and trust. Sep 27, 2017 Full Review Chris Knight National Post They've done an amazing job, recording donkeys in action without any of the standard documentary conventions. Rated: 3.5/4 Apr 28, 2017 Full Review Read all reviews
