So, 'Over the Barriers' is this fascinating documentary that dives deep into the relationship between the Kazakh people and their horses. You really feel the pulse of their culture, especially with horses being such a huge part of their drive and aspirations. The film takes you back to the Soviet era, focusing on this legendary horse, Absinthe, which carries a lot of narrative weight. The pacing feels deliberate, allowing you to soak in the stunning landscapes and the passion of the people. There's a rawness here, a mix of hope and grit, as they talk about reaching for Olympic heights. It's not flashy, but there's something genuine about the performances and the way the stories unfold that really sticks with you.
