“Thou Shalt Fly Without Wings” is a beautifully filmed documentary celebrating man’s most majestic companion: the horse. From wild horses running free in the American West to a well-attended mare giving birth in a Kentucky stable, this award-winning film offers a glimpse into the many ways in which horses and people share their lives.
Beginning with scenes of wild horses in the American West, “Thou Shalt Fly Without Wings” reminds its audience of the inherent beauty and grandeur of the horse. Continuing with footage of trotting horses at the fabled Red Mile in Lexington, three-day eventing on the East Coast and show jumping in Florida, the film reveals the horse as a competitor and an entertainer. The innate work ethic of the horse is apparent in segments on cutting horses and cowboys in Idaho, plow horses in Maine and the famed Royal Canadian Mounted Police drill team in Calgary, Alberta. And finally, the eternal bond between mankind and the horse is praised through the intimate footage of a young woman grooming her horse, teenagers playing tag on horseback and a horseman tending to a mare giving birth in the darkness of a Kentucky night.

Digitally re-mastered and re-mixed, this Academy Award-nominated film, originally produced for the opening of the Kentucky Horse Park in 1978, will become a prized possession of any horse lover. On Video and DVD.
