“Man-Horse” is a film about an old farmer, Jonas, and his horse. It is an intimate story about the existential relationship between human and animal; it is about solitude and the daily effort to survive. The film’s director and Jonas Šalomskas are neighbours in the village of Užuguostis. They have known each other for two decades. —Doc Alliance
