The Eloquent Peasant is not a film for all tastes. It suits mostly those who are interested in the History of Antiquity and/or in "World Cinema". The film is inspired by a homonymous sapiencial tale, about a peasant who inflicts negligible damage to a landlord's property, and has his two donkeys taken. Effectively eloquent, he goes from authority to authority to defend his case, until he reaches the governor, who redeems and rewards him for his honesty.
