According to director Melissa Henry, “Horse You See is a film that celebrates life and the Navajo language, and shows us what is the essence of being a horse.” Awarded Best Children’s Film at the Talking Circle Indigenous Film Festival in 2009, this hypnotically repetetive “exposé” details the lot of a Native-speaking equine named Ross. Any one curious about the cadence and inflection of the Navajo language will surely enjoy a few minutes of viewing.
