Monty Roberts at EIFF
The Equus International Film Festival, Missoula, Montana, screened our Horsefly Films Rare Equine Trust documentary "Talking to the Air: The Horses of the Last Forbidden Kingdom" last week. The festival was a wonderful experience, with many great equine films and the extra special chance to meet Monty Roberts and his daughter Debbie. Monty Roberts was gracious, supportive, an incredible story teller and an inspiration. His words of encouragement meant a lot. He is a true advocate for the horse and a powerhouse of a man.
Diana Webster and Dr. Michael Yellow Bird were especially inspiring on mindfulness and healing our animals/healing our people. (http://www.nativeamericahumane.org/eiff.html)
Hearing some of Smoke Elser's tales from the backcountry on horseback was also a grand experience.(http://news.nationalgeographic.com/2015/07/150703-cowboy-montana-west-wilderness-backcountry-united-states/)
Our documentary was awarded with Best of Festival, Best Script and tied for Best Documentary. It was an honor to tie with a beautiful film called "Blindspot" made by the extremely talented cinematographer and equestrian Stefan Morel. (http://stefanmorel.com/blind-spot/)
