Description
When a neglected donkey is taken in by a barefoot running guru, the aim is to restore its health. However, the donkey is ill-tempered and fearful of humans, making it clear that its poor treatment has had a lasting impact. To give the donkey a purpose, the owner learns of the sport of Burro Racing and sets out to provide it with a meaningful activity.
As the donkey begins to build trust with its owner, they start to run together, providing a connection with nature and the outdoors. This unusual partnership has surprising benefits, not only for the donkey's mental and physical health but also for its owner's own well-being.
