VIDEO:  Homestretch - Documentary Film Trailer
 
 
Homestretch documents the mutual rehabilitation of outcast horses and prisoners. When top-pedigree racehorses fail to earn, they face slaughter or punishing two-bit racing circuits. Now, a few progressive prison farms are pairing rescued thoroughbreds with jail-hardened men. The transformations in both the horses and prisoners challenge stereotypes and, for some, offer hopes of redemption. http://www.homestretchthemovie.com
