About the film

​

Set against the beauty of Australia's outback, Guided by Horses is a timely and heartwarming hybrid documentary that blends reality with a cinematic, spiritual gravity.

In this remote region, scarred by some of the world’s highest youth suicide rates, young Indigenous people navigate their path to adulthood through life-changing bonds with wild horses.

At the centre of this journey is a one-of-a-kind sanctuary and its creator, Aboriginal researcher Professor Juli Coffin, whose own life was saved by horses. In an age of disconnection, Guided by Horses is a beautiful, moving reminder of where we can turn for our inner spirit to be ignited.
