The fetish for “pony play” has been a re-occurring theme in many films previously shown at Pornfilmfestival. But ÊTRE CHEVAL takes us a step further as we meet 50-year old transvestite Karen, who travels to the US to train with an American cowboy for her transformation into a horse. Between the almost magical training sessions, Karen reflects on the meaning and value of “pony play” in her life. A poetic reflection on humanity, gender, life, love and nature.
