Riding-Hall Horse Reading 2010

Directed by Aleksandr Nevzorov

This film is more about people than horses. It draws on the history and current reality of the so-called "L.E.P." (Lectio Equiaria Palaestra)—an ancient secret practice that very simply and very convincingly demonstrates that, alas, reason is not a privilege or special distinction reserved for humans, but is inherent in all living beings as well. A normal, substantial, fully-fledged reason in its very familiar forms, which humans consider their exclusive prerogative.
