    Where (Icelandic) nature and the human condition become one.
    Of Horses and Men, in Icelandic; Hross í Oss.

    A film by actor, author and director Benedikt Erlingsson and produced by Fridrik Thor Fridriksson.

    I encourage everyone to see it and form their own opinions.

    Tom Robbins said: "The function of the artist is to provide what life does not".

    Apparently Tom has never been to Iceland. I truly enjoyed this magnificent journey, diving into the deep end of the pool with a talented group of artists/professionals — and horses! — taking chances (in my opinion with great success) that I have never seen before in Icelandic films (if anywhere else) coming out with loads of beautiful - and some unforgettable moments...

    One of the better films I have seen in a good while; amongst several other factors, the cinematography blew my mind. But then again, this is Iceland, Icelandic landscape, Icelandic horses, etc. etc.

    Will be thoroughly surprised if this film does not do extremely well.
