The Horse Boy
“The Horse Boy” explores one family’s unforgettable journey as they travel halfway across the world in search of a miracle to heal their autistic son. The film blends footage from the family’s adventure through the Mongolian countryside with scenes from their life at home in Texas. Bolstered by testimony from autism experts, including Dr. Temple Grandin, this compelling film exquisitely captures an astonishing physical and spiritual journey. By Michel Orion Scott.MY REVIEW
As a parent of an Autistic child I found this to be an incredibly touching DVD. I could totally relate to many of the emotions that the parents expressed. I found their experience to be fascinating... and intriguing to say the least. I thought The Horse Boy was very well done and it held my attention from start to finish.
You can find The Horse Boy on Facebook and get more information about the film on horseboymovie.com . You can also purchase The Horse Boy from Amazon.com.
Thanks so much to The Independent Lens for sending me a review copy of this DVD.

I saw this documentary a few weeks ago and found it to be very interesting! I kept telling my husband, "There's no way I'm traveling to Outer Mongolia to help my daughter!" LOL! I guess I'm not as dedicated as a parent!
