Buck

Documentary


 

An examination of the life of acclaimed 'horse whisperer' Buck Brannaman, who recovered from years of child abuse to become a well-known expert in the interactions between horses and people.

This engaging documentary centres on a horse whisperer who says that rather than helping people with horse problems, he helps horses with people problems. The modest and authentic cowboy is kind in his methods and demonstrates an incredible rapport with and respect for the horses he works with. The message delivered is how to break cycles of abuse with sensitivity, the effect is life affirming and uplifting. Home, home on the range...
