Synopsis

Cuando los medicos determinaron que su hijo Rowan padecia autismo, la noticia hundio a Rupert Isaacon, quien temio que jamas lograria comunicarse bien con el niño, aunque pronto se dio cuenta de que cuando montaba el caballo de su vecino junto con Rowan, el niño parecia mejorar visiblemente de su trastorno. A Isaacson, un experto jinete, se le ocurrio entonces una idea disparatada: llevar a Rowan a Mongolia, el unico lugar en el mundo donde los caballos y la medicina sanadora de los chamanes se entrelazan profundamente. El niño de los caballos es la dramatica y conmovedora historia de esa aventura imposible. En Mongolia, la familia hallo unos paisajes y unas personas increibles, unos obstaculos casi insalvables y unos progresos que ni siquiera habian soñado poder lograr. Esta es una historia profundamente emotiva y singular, la de una familia dispuesta a ir al fin del mundo con tal de ayudar a su hijo, y la de un niño que aprende a conectar con el mundo por primera vez. / When his son Rowan was diagnosed with autism, Rupert Isaacson was devastated, afraid he might never be able to communicate with his child. But when Isaacson, a lifelong horseman, rode their neighbor's horse with Rowan, Rowan improved immeasurably. He was struck with a crazy idea: why not take Rowan to Mongolia, the one place in the world where horses and shamanic healing intersected? THE HORSE BOY is the dramatic and heartwarming story of that impossible adventure. In Mongolia, the family found undreamed of landscapes and people, unbearable setbacks, and advances beyond their wildest dreams. This is a deeply moving, truly one-of-a-kind story--of a family willing to go to the ends of the earth to help their son, and of a boy learning to connect with the world for the first time.
