Equus Film Festival

 

Horses, always objects of fascination in Montana and around the world, are gaining some cultural cache, being utilized in therapy and as a way for humans to reconnect with nature.

“I think it’s a sign of the times,” said Janet Rose, Equus Film Festival founder and director. “More and more people are hearing about, learning about, wanting some kind of a connection with horses.”

Which makes the Missoula-based festival all the more exciting for Rose, who used to helm the International Wildlife Film Festival and saw a similar mainstream acceptance of nature films a decade or so ago.
