This short film takes viewers to the shores of Sable Island, a small strip of land less than a mile-wide whose only full-time inhabitants are wild horses; no human attempts at colonization have ever succeeded. Director and Photographer Drew Doggett examines Sable through its never-ending cycles of birth and rebirth, with a narrator who is anonymously-enmeshed within the island as its pervasive voice. Drew partnered with Christopher Ward, a multi-platinum, Oscar, and Grammy-winning composer to create an original score for the film, as well as Director of Photography Benny Nicks, whose celebrated work has been shown at the Tribeca Film Festival.
