THE HORSE BOY - A Father/Son Story

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!

More and more films are being made about the vital role that fathers play in the
development of their children. Society is entering a new era of parenting, when
fathers, instead of being emotionally distant breadwinners, are stepping up to
the plate of direct, hands-on parenting. The special bond between father and son
is one of the greatest gifts life can offer. The Horse Boy
tells this story.

The Horse Boy explores one family's journey as they travel halfway across the world in search of a miracle to heal their autistic son.

The Horse Boy does more than chronicle Rowan and his parents' journey across the vast, wild landscape of Mongolia. It delves into the strange world of autism itself, the relationship between humans and animals and between different cultures and different ways of being (autistic vs. normal, or "neuro-typical"), and the nature of healing.

Toys AUcross America was created when an 11-year-old boy with Asperger syndrome decided to donate his toy trains and cars to other kids who are Autistic. It all started when a group member in a Facebook group called World of Autism-Making it a positive one posted a picture of her son and stated hewanted to have a Lightning McQueen party for his birthday. Michael Miller, the creator of Toys AUcross America offered to send a few Cars vehicles to her son. Unfortunately, Michael learned she lived in Australia and has acknowledged that the shipping from the U.S. was a bit expensive to do. She completely understood, but he felt guilty anyway.
