Borrowed From the Earth
Borrowed From the Earth is a story about the powerful connection Blackfeet Indians have with horses and how that life-giving connection is alive today. This short film explains the value of this connection by taking viewers on a poetic journey from the origin story of the horse to the modern day Indian Relay Race, set on the Blackfeet Reservation in Browning Montana.
