Rescued Hearts Film Screening & Filmmaker Conversation

Date: Saturday, May 9th

Doors open at 4PM. Film Screening with filmmakers begins at 5:30PM.

From 4-5PM, you are welcome to attend a special “Meet and Mingle” hour with appetizers - Come learn more about equine assisted services in the valley and beyond, hear from some of our sponsors and get a chance to visit with each other! This event is alcohol-free.

Film Screening:

5:30pm - 8pm, with time to meet and share with filmmakers afterward.

Join us for a special screening of Rescued Hearts - the powerful award-winning documentary uncovering the miracles, mystery, and science of healing with horses - proudly brought to this community by Blue Star Resort & Retreat. The filmmakers will be in attendance for a meaningful time of reflection following the film.

Inspired by a life-changing moment when a 7-year-old child diagnosed with autism spoke his first words while interacting with a horse, filmmakers Dana Croschere and Krisanna Sexton set out to explore the profound and often miraculous connection between horses and humans.

Through deeply moving stories and expert insight, the film reveals how horses offer a space where healing and transformation can unfold - a space where healing is never one-sided.

Rating: Rescued Hearts carries no official rating, but it does contain sensitive themes within the healing journeys shared. These topics may not be suitable for younger viewers.
