Antoinette, a school teacher, is looking forward to her long planned summer holidays with her secret lover Vladimir, the father of one of her pupils. When learning that Vladimir cannot come because his wife organized a surprise trekking holiday in the Cévennes National Park with their daughter and a donkey to carry their load, Antoinette decides to follow their track, by herself, with Patrick, a protective donkey.

"The main character named Antoinette (Laure Calamy) is in a conversation with her lover’s wife, who is also the mother of one of her students. She is recounting how she got lost and had to spend her previous night alone in the woods. The other woman is shocked, as most people would be. “All alone?” she asks. No, of course not – “with my donkey” answers Antoinette. This is My Donkey, My Lover & I "
