Homestretch

My longtime friend, Sheri Bylander has produced and directed a marvelous documentary that I hope you'll check out. It's called "Homestrech" and it tells the story of two groups --prisoners and outcast horses-- and the hopeful things that happen when they get together.

Here's what the
website says about it:


Homestretch documents the mutual rehabilitation of outcast horses and prisoners. When top-pedigree racehorses fail to earn, they face slaughter or punishing two-bit racing circuits. Alternatively, a few progressive prison farms are pairing rescued thoroughbreds with jail-hardened men. The transformation in man and beast challenges stereotypes of incarceration and so-called "losers."


Watch the trailer

It's QUITE good. I hope you'll spread the word about Homestretch.
