Spirit refuses to let himself be broken by these men, but his battle to regain his freedom is not to be an easy one. Set against the landscape of the great American West, and based on the DreamWorks film SPIRIT: STALLION OF THE CIMARRON, this is an epic story of adventure, friendship and freedom. |
