Film Synopsis
“War Horse,” the Academy Award®-nominated
Best Picture, is a story of incredible friendship, loyalty, courage, hope and
tenacity. Based on the Tony Award®-winning play, and set against the
sweeping canvas of World War I, this deeply heartfelt tale begins with the
remarkable friendship between a feisty colt named Joey and his young trainer
Albert (Jeremy Irvine). When they’re forced apart by war, the film follows
Joey’s extraordinary journey as he changes and inspires the lives of everyone
he meets. No matter where they go or what they experience both boy and horse
keep forging ahead, driven by devotion and the hope of returning home. Filled
with spectacularly rich visuals, “War Horse” is one of the most powerful and
moving stories of friendship and love ever filmed.
