Cindy Meehl’s documentary, Buck, reveals the life story of real-life horse whisperer, Buck Brannaman. It’s fitting then that this doc made such a splash at onscreen Horse Whisperer Robert Redford’s Sundance festivities this year, where Buck took home the Documentary Audience Award.
Now, you can share in the excitement over Sundance Selects’ latest acquisition by viewing the the trailer, courtesy of Trailer Addict:
Synopsis from Trailer Addict:
A living legend in the horse world, Buck Brannaman was the inspiration for The Horse Whisperer. For this true cowboy, horses are a mirror of the human soul. Reared by an abusive father, Buck eschews violence. By teaching people to communicate with horses through instinct, not punishment, he frees the spirit of the horse and its human comrade. Crisscrossing the world with Zenlike wisdom, Buck promulgates grace in the bond between man and horse. The animal-human relationship becomes a perfect metaphor for meeting the challenges of daily life, whether they consist of raising kids, running a business, or finding your flow with a dance partner.
No word yet on when Sundance Selects will release Buck.
