A strangely hypnotic, darkly comic look at a quirky horse-riding community in stunning rural Iceland. Pondering the relationship between man and horse, six interrelated vignettes of sex and death are told, highlighting the blind cruelty of fate.

“Delightfully comedic and adorned with gorgeous vistas of the Icelandic landscape, Benedikt Erlingsson's directorial début Of Horses and Men is a compelling exploration of the animal instincts in all of us. Set in a rural community where horses are a crucial part of the social interaction, the actor turned writer/ director allows the spectator to see the world of his human characters through their equines' expressive eyes. His story combines a peculiar affinity for tragedy with light hearted charm.” http://blogs.indiewire.com/
