Unknown to many Americans, the U.S. is in the midst of a highly politicized crisis surrounding its wild horse populations. Hellbent follows a woman at the frontlines of that debate, whose story challenges Americans to set differences aside and talk to each other.

In this poignant short documentary, Jenny Lesieutre—a determined life-long wildlife advocate—and a community of people impacted at the frontlines of the issue confront the heartbreaking wild horse overpopulation crisis in America, exploring the delicate balance between preservation and intervention in a battle to protect these iconic creatures and their future.

‍Hellbent is currently running through the festival circuit and will be released online this fall.
