Three horses. Three lives. One magical journey. Horses - The Story of Equus opens June 18 in IMAX
 Presented by Horse Racing Alberta &
The Horses at Northlands Park
"You don't have to be a horse lover to appreciate Horses. But after watching
this docudrama, it's easy to understand
how people become horse lovers."
- Minneapolis Star Tribune
We are proud to bring you a brand new IMAX adventure full of art, science and drama. We follow the amazing stories of three horses who were born the same night but had very different lives ahead of them:
- The RACER, a courageous Chestnut filly who follows in the footsteps of her ancestors to become an extraordinary racehorse.
- The RASCAL, a Bay colt who turns from a very stubborn and temperamental equestrian horse into a valued stunt horse for the movies.
- The RUNAWAY, a Black colt who escapes from a life surrounded by people and joins the feral herds in the wild.
Don't miss this unforgettable film. Join us for the exclusive Member Preview on the morning of Saturday, June 19 and stay for our special Horsepower Weekend activities for the family.
