The last truly wild horses are finding a new home in Europe
In short: Follow the journey of a Przewalski horse foal as it navigates the windswept Hungarian plains. This documentary captures the intimate social lives of a species once on the brink of extinction.
The Przewalski horse is one of the rarest horse species on Earth. Originally native to Mongolia, these animals were pushed to the edge of extinction before finding refuge in Central Europe. Today, a recovering population of nearly 300 horses roams the Puszta, a vast grassland in Hungary.
Filmed over three years, the documentary explores the complex social structures of these horses, which are built on family bonds and survival instincts. The film also highlights the broader ecosystem of the steppe, showcasing the fragile balance between the horses and other iconic species.
