In a unique meeting of natural and human history, EQUUS IN AFRICA follows the family of Equus on a journey from their origins in the Eocene Age across millions of years and half the world to find a home in Africa. Against the background of the African continent’s rich landscapes, history and cultures, it vividly tells of the role that EQUUS played in shaping mankind’s story, as beasts of burden and as heroes, champions and friends.
EQUUS IN AFRICA is a collaboration with Up a Gum Tree Productions.
