Yes yes, youth film Horse by Flo Meijer has been selected by the Netherlands Film Fund Shorts ๐Ÿ„ ๐Ÿพ



Horse tells the story of Lux, a young girl living on a farm with her dad Saab, her dog Calf, and 72 cows. Among the cows she is happy, but fitting in with her classmates feels rather impossible. Most of the girls in her class do horseback riding. Lux isnโ€™t allowed a horse by her dad, and in an attempt to connect with her classmates, Lux teaches herself to ride on her favourite cow Dakota. This starts as a fun activity for both of them, but slowly Lux increasingly longs for Dakota to become a horse. Unconsciously, she puts at risk what is most precious to her; her friendship with Dakota
