This film will help raise awareness for the dwindling wild horse population of this breed, but also the challenge the villagers face to protect them.
There are few options for the villagers in order to protect the wild horses: confronting the cattle thieves is dangerous, hunting wolves is prohibited, the territory is crowded by fast growing trees that take up the space of the pastures.

But, as a painting on the cemetery wall says, Sabucedo will fight for their identity ("Stop praying, fight")
