 Icelandic horse (DVD) - Order here   
- 45 min.

The Icelandic horse is considered to be of Mongolian origin as the Arabian horse, arriving in Iceland via Russia and Norway. The breed has been kept completely pure in Iceland for over 1000 years. It is small, but strong, and known for its good temper and friendliness. It is unique in that it has five gates and is exceptionally smooth to ride. This documentary tells how the Vikings survived with the help of the Icelandic horse and how it was used in agriculture and for transportation in Iceland up to the middle of the 20th century. From that point on horsemanship became very popular in Iceland, and those who have gone on a ridin trip in the summer never forget it. Today, ther are over 70 thousand horses in Iceland, and over 100 thousand are found in 20 other countries around the world. What is the nature of the Icelandic horse? How is it bred? Broken in? Trained? This film has all the answers.

Das Islandspferd ist ebenso wie das arabische Pferd mongolischen Ursprunges, und kam von dort uber Russland und Norwegen nach Island. Seit uber 1000 Jahren ist die Rasse hier völlig rein gehalten worden. Es ist klein, aber robust und bekannt fur sein freundliches Gemut. Das Besondere sind aber seine funf Gangarten, welche ein ausgesprochen sanftes Reiten ermöglichen. Diese Dokumentation berichtet, wie die Wikinger durch die Hilfe des Islandpferdes uberlebten, und wie die Pferde bis in die Mitte des 20sten Jahrhunderts in der Landwirtschaft und zum Transport benutzt wurden. Von diesem Zeitpunkt an wurde der Reitsport auf Island zunehmend popular und wird heute weltweit in uber 20 Landern praktiziert. Was ist das Wesen dieser Pferde, wie werden sie gezuchtet, zugeritten und trainert? Dieser Film beantwortet alle Fragen uber das Islandpferd.

Fjallmenn á Landmannafrétti (DVD- VHS) - Order here  

The lure of the highlands - It has long been the tradition of farmers to ride into the highlands in the southern regions of Iceland, to gather their sheep in the autumn. About thirty men, accompanied by sixty horses, gather sheep in these spacious and greatly admired rural scenes, frequently called " A Range of a Hundred Mountains." So many are the mountains the farmers have to search on foot, on horseback, and in jeeps. In this magnificent film the magic and beaty of Iceland's colourful nature is beyond belief.

Zauber des Hochlandes - Es ist seit Jahren eine Tradition, dass die Bauer ins sudliche Hochland reiten um ihre Schafe abzutreiben. Rund 30 Leute mit 60 Pferden reiten durch diese grosszugige, faszinierende Landschaft, die Haufig "Der Pfad der Hundert Berge", genannt wird. Die Berge in dieser Gegend sind so zahlroich, das die Bauer ihre Schafe zu fuss, mit dem Pferd oder mit dem Jeep zusammensuchen mussen. Dieser fabelhafte Film bringt den Zauber der islandischen Natur hervorragend hervor.
