Ossie and Tito live a bleak existence with their father (Gabriel Byrne) in the Dublin slums, until the arrival of the boys' grandfather (David Kelly) with a glorious white stallion by the name of Tir na nOg.
Tir na nOg's name comes from a figure out of Irish legends, and it takes an instant liking to Ossie and Tito. Accused of a crime they didn't commit, two city kids and a magical horse are about to become the coolest outlaws ever to ride Into The West.
Rescuing the stallion from the clutches of corrupt local policemen, they escape to the west coast, where the horse's magical powers are revealed.
A modern-day fairy tale from Mike 'Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire' Newell.
