This remarkable adaptation of Walter Farley₂s classic children₂s novel by Carroll Ballard (Fly Away Home), in which an American boy is rescued after a shipwreck off the coast of North Africa by a seemingly untamable wild horse, is a cinematic tour de force. After surviving a shipwreck together, a young boy and a horse develop a bond, and begin training to race once they are rescued.
