I was considering this video as a present for a 14 year old girl who loves horses and I think it will be just the thing for her. I was worried that the content and narrative might be too sophisticated or just not interesting to her, but I don't think it'll be a big problem. The video was definitely made for adults, but I believe teenagers will enjoy the video as well, especially since the cinematography is so good. The horses are beautiful and beautifully filmed.

There is a lot of history about the horse, but the emphasis of the video is definitely on the horse's place, uses and problems in modern day society. Even someone who knows a lot about horses will learn from and enjoy this video, I know I did!!

great movie! showed the history of the horse and how many exciting different breeds are out there. also how the horses were tamed and treated in the first place.

My 6-year old has been enjoying this video for about a year. There are some parts that are a bit strong - in terms of content (like the parts dealing with horse slaughter and the death of some of the Mongolian horses) - but she gets through it.

There is a similar Nature series video, starring Julia Roberts, that explores the history of the Mongolian horse.

Both are great for the horse lover.
