Based on the life of Lucia Joyce, the talented but troubled daughter of James Joyce. The film follows Lucia as she struggles to fulfil her personal ambition to become a professional dancer, while navigating her complex relationship with her father as his muse and confidant.

Set in 1950s Ireland, Diva Donkey tells the story of a world famous opera singer, Lucia di Tortellini, who crash-lands on a remote island changing the course of her life and that of Cora, a local islander grieving the recent loss of her mother. When local superstition comes to life, Lucia finds herself stuck inside the body of a donkey. From there, our narcissistic diva is set to be taught a scrooge-esque lesson. That lesson will be revealed through Cora, a child who desperately needs a friend in her life - human or otherwise. What unfolds is an emotional, humorous and heartwarming tale exploring universal themes of friendship and healing. Kindness makes you happier, empathy makes you stronger, change is possible.
