After a run in with the law, Aylin, a 17-year old Muslim girl - part of the Turkish Diaspora - finds herself sentenced to community service at an out of town horse stable in Germany. Beset by troubles at home and school, it is here that she, despite all odds, is set on the road to self-discovery. As the pace quickens her blossoming relationship with the stallion Hördur and her fledgling dreams are tested to the breaking point. Can Aylin build a bridge between worlds? And if she can, will others follow?


"Hördur" will grip an audience whether it is interested in horses or not. The film tells the experience of young migrants in modern day Northern Germany in a sensitive and authentic way, it is a moving and inspiring coming-of-age drama.
