THE HORSE BOY trailer
Official Selection 2009 Sundance Film Festival
How far would you travel to heal someone you love? An intensely personal yet epic spiritual journey, The Horse Boy follows one Texas couple and their autistic son as they trek on horseback through Outer Mongolia in a desperate attempt to treat his condition with shamanic healing. When two-year-old Rowan was diagnosed with autism, Rupert Isaacson, a writer and former horse trainer, and his wife Kristin Neff, a psychology professor, sought the best possible medical care for their son—but traditional therapies had little effect. Then they discovered that Rowan has a profound affinity for animals—particularly horses—and the family set off on a quest for a possible cure.
The Horse Boy is part travel adventure, part insight into shamanic tradition and part intimate look at the autistic mind. In telling one familys extraordinary story, the film gives voice to the thousands who display amazing courage and creativity everyday in the battle against this mysterious and heartbreaking epidemic. The filmic companion to Isaacsons best-selling book of the same name and a festival favorite, this ravishing documentary odyssey gives insight into how, in lifes darkest moments, one can find the gateway to joy and wonder.

There’s a book called “The horse boy” by Rupert Isaacson and he wrote about his journey to Mongolia with his autistic son Rowan. And a film crew came with them so this is the documentary about the journey which is also “available” as a book. Hope you understand what I mean.

Great book. Hope to see the movie soon!
I read this book last month and I was touched by it. I’m from Germany and haven’t seen the movie – just found the trailer and I was ALREADY a part of it since I “knew” all the places. I am going to a school to become Occupational Therapist and my teacher told me that I shoudn’t even think about working with animals. It wouldn’t work. I don’t care! Never believe anyone decrying something! I’m very interested in autism, I love horses and the Lion King!
