Synopsis
The story of a seemingly average businessman whose secret sexual life led to his shocking death, which explores the ensuing media coverage of 2005’s Enumclaw horse incident and public outcry that uncovered a secret community of apparently upstanding citizens who share this extreme and exotic appetite. Interviewed are those who were directly and indirectly affected—friends of the deceased, animal advocates, law enforcement members, horse rescuers, urban and rural community members, and government officials. –Inbaseline

Robinson Devor is a pretty heady guy. Certainly an independent in the U.S.A. Wish there were more like him.

The film puts itself on slippery slope as it tries (or inevitably ends up trying) to justify, decriminalize and even dignify these animal sex “offenders” (in quotation marks depending on where you’re coming from). At the end of the film, one cannot be fully convinced that the extreme love for an animal justifies the (sex) act, but feels for those harbouring deep dark secrets, taboos in the otherwise ‘normal’ world.

Extremely interesting subject matter, mixed with nice cinematography and soothing music. Could it go wrong? Even though I think this is worth watching, the storytelling falls apart at its edges, and sometimes you are so sedated by the beauty of the images, that you don`t even care. Maybe there is something wrong with me, but it took a long time before I understood who was telling the story, and which person was which, etc.
