Made with the aim to inspire and encourage barefoot (and would-be barefoot) horse owners around the world, "Barefoot - That's me!" traces the journey of the Australian Equine Barefoot Movement Inc from its beginnings in 2002, culminating in the triumph of taking part barefoot and bitless in a local event known as the Riding of the Bounds, at which the AEBM won praise from other riders and won a trophy for Best Presented Group.
The story tells how a bunch of like-minded people got together to seek expert help from overseas to rehabilitate their horses from the damage caused by horseshoes, and went on to form what is still the only non-denominational non-profit barefoot association in Australia, an organization with a mission statement to promote and provide quality information to horse owners about the health and welfare advantages of a natural "iron free" lifestyle for horses. The DVD includes an interview with Julie Leitl, qualified hoofcare specialist, and information about natural lifestyle and riding bitless.
"Barefoot - That's me!" is as easy on the eye and ear as it is entertaining and informative. It has been lovingly handcrafted from script to the final edit, and everything in between. It is illustrated with delightful footage of a herd of horses living, playing and running in a natural lifestyle setting, and overlaid with several original music tracks (one of which was Number 3 on the popcharts in Madrid in April 2006) ranging in style from rock to whimsical.
A must for all those who are striving to do the best for their horses by transitioning them to barefoot in a world where conventional wisdom still dictates that horses should wear metal on their feet and in their mouths, and where their real needs as a species for good health, full soundness, happiness and long life are still almost totally misunderstood.
