The Horse Boy - European Edition - Pal - Region Free

How far would you travel to heal someone you love? An intensely personal yet an epic spiritual journey, The Horse Boy follows one Texas couple and their autistic son as they trek on horseback through Outer Mongolia in a desperate attempt to treat his condition with shamanic healing. When 2-year-old Rowan was diagnosed with autism, Rupert Isaacson, a writer and former horse trainer, and his wife, Kristin Neff, a psychology professor, sought the best possible medical care for their son - but traditional therapies had little effect. Then they discovered that Rowan has a profound affinity for animals - particularly horses - and the family set off on a quest for a possible cure. The Horse Boy is part travel adventure, part insight into shamanic tradition and part intimate look at the autistic mind. In telling one family's extraordinary story, the film gives voice to the thousands who display amazing courage and creativity every day in the battle against the mysterious and heartbreaking epidemic. The film companion to Isaacson's best-selling book of the same name and a festival favorite, the ravishing documentary odyssey gives insight into how, in life's darkest moments, a gateway to joy and wonder can be found. Extras include additional interview footage between Dr Temple Grandin and Rupert as they discuss the Isaacsons' pending trip to Mongolia , "The Horse Boy" official Trailer and "Temple Grandin - A View From The Inside" official Trailer which is now also available to purchase on Amazon.
