    That’s too sad and disturbing to watch. I’ve rescued 3 horses, not wild horses, from slaughter – I couldn’t watch it for fear he’d have that filmed as well. However, I think it’s a fantastic piece of music/film combination, I’ll just listen.

    Slightly off topic, but are you familiar with the work of Cam Christiansen?
    Artist who went to ACAD, (I was in first year with him and his drawing skills are phenomenal), and then got a degree in Industrial Design from U of C, then married a woman who is in theatre – and this is the result; he’s an award winning film maker.
