About this title
In the film the director travels to Israel, where she was raised, during September 2023 to film the public protests against the Israeli government. During that time she is given access to a secretive section of the police unit, the cavalry, where she documents the desensitization of the imported Friesian horses. The film consists of documentation contrasting horses in a rural setting, the West Bank, an Israeli police unit and manipulated archival footage, depicting a transformation from sensitive singular entities to amalgamations.
