The Epiphany procession is the most important event in a small alpine village. Tradition requires that a donkey accompanies the three kings during the procession. Leopoldo is the only donkey in the village, but his owner, a good giant who lives with his old mother, is reluctant to give his donkey. A few days before the feast, the donkey disappears. There are those who look for him, those who intone chants and others who pray waiting for Leopoldo.
Here the trailer.
