      Spirit Stallion of the Cimarron review

      The Solider and His Horse from Aesop with new vocabulary and video for English students

      Set in the Old West in the late 19th century, the film follows Spirit, a Kiger mustang stallion (voiced by Matt Damon as a narrator), who is captured during the American Indian Wars by the United States Cavalry; he is eventually freed by a Lakota man named Little Creek with whom he bonds, as well as a mare named Rain. In contrast to the anthropomorphic style of animal characters in other animated features, Spirit and his fellow horses communicate with each other through non-linguistic sounds and body language (albeit with many human facial expressions and reactions).

      The theme of this animation was freedom. Like the name of the main track ” Homeland”, freedom is presented in this cartoon by being at home and where you are with your family.
      The story occurs during the war between indigenous people and the U.S. government. A Stallion got caught by humans due to his excessive curiosity. Through the movie, he tries to find a way home.

      I really had a good time watching it. It was full of love, trust and being the way you are. I adore how Creek was a fully grown human and kind hearted. The way Spirit was so stubborn and didn’t give up on himself was really interesting.
