Trailer
This video is presented as part of the free Pop-up programming from March 16 to 26, 2022 from 11:00 am to 6:00 pm in the Tudor Hall at Holt Renfrew Ogilvy.
Between jealousy and desire, a groom’s obsession takes precedence over its reality. From the paddock to the race track, Johnny prepares the horses to win. He watches the runners defiantly, he whispers a secret to his horse. When the sun goes down, under the canvas of a blue sky, a white mare walks towards him.
