"As a non-binary person, I know fear and misunderstanding. I saw violence as an irrational reaction in front of the unknown. But I truly believe that communication lies in the ability to see beyond mere appearances into a wider reality. That’s my intention with this documentary: to inspire new ways of seeing. Horses have always been a passion since my childhood, and they may be the key to helping us understand our contemporary blindness."
