Bulldog Film Distribution presents THE WANTING MARE available to rent or own on Digital HD on 7 February 2022.
THE WANTING MARE is a visionary work from filmmaker Nicholas Ashe Bateman, blending science fiction, drama, fantasy and romance in lyrical style to create a bold and atmospheric new cinematic world.
Synopsis: In the world of Anmaere, north of the city of Whithren, wild horses run through the moorlands and up the coast. These horses are the city's most valuable export, and as a result are hunted, trapped, sold and shipped across the sea once a year. For those in Whithren, this trade creates exciting possibilities: the chance to escape their constantly sweltering city to head across the sea. Meanwhile, in a small house just north of the city, a line of women passes a single dream through the generations. They inherit it from mother to daughter; a memory of a time where magic and myth were alive in the world.
THE WANTING MARE is the directorial debut of Nicolas Ashe Bateman, a visual effects artist known for his work on A24’s The Green Knight.
