An accident involving a truck leaves physical and psychological sequels on a teenage girl and on the horse she was riding during the accident. Her mother takes them both on a trip to meet a horse 'therapist' living in a secluded ranch with his brother and the latter's wife.
I could enjoy with no problem about one fourth of the movie, which is exactly up until when the titular character appears. After that, the film slowly (very slowly) reveals its purpose. Working women, the film says, should be tamed the same way horses are. The message is conveyed amid mellow music and "ravishing" landscapes. A cube of sugar for the horse, a ton for the viewer. An absurd film.
