Behind the Scenes of The Mustang

The Mustang is a feature movie that showcases the fictional story of a convict, Roman Coleman, who finds his humanity in working with a Mustang named Marquis.



The story, by writer/director Laure de Clermont-Tonnerre, is based on real-life programs that match inmates with Mustangs, offering a chance for inmates to develop vocational skills working with horses and helping to make the formerly wild horses more adoptable.

 

In this short feature, Clermont-Tonnerre, Executive Producer Robert Redford, lead actor Matthias Schoenaerts, and other members of the cast and crew talk about the powerful connections formed and the lessons learned from working with horses.

The Mustang movie is in theaters now. Find out more at focusfeatures.com/the-mustang.
