Synopsis
Piñata is that classic story about a stuffed donkey's search for respect. On the list of bad jobs, getting smacked with sticks by small children who want to get to your insides is right up there. One small, feisty, lolly-stuffed burro has had enough... but there's an even smaller, determined little girl who decides that his sweets are going to be hers no matter what. Caution: Contains hitting, sombreros and papier-mâché.
