Cloud: Wild Stallion Of The Rockies

Filmed in the mountains of western Montana, this poignant story focuses on an extraordinary wild stallion whose life has been recorded by filmmaker Ginger Kathrens since his moment of birth in the wild. Ms. Kathrens' exceptional footage follows the striking white horse she names Cloud through a series of harrowing struggles and adventures, including expulsion from his own horse family, the rites of passage as he develops into a dominating stallion, his capture in a government roundup and subsequent release, the struggle to survive harsh winters and frequent summer lightning strikes, and the dangers posed by illegal horse shooters.
