A gentle stop-motion holiday fable about an outcast donkey finding purpose and belonging through a sacred journey, blending whimsy with Christmas spirituality.

Nestor the donkey is a bit of an oddity--his long ears are enough for six donkeys and stretch all the way to the ground. One night, when Nestor is locked out in the cold, he begins to wander the desert.
