Overview
Banchong Kosalwat, a pioneer of Thai experimental film, created this empathetic documentary on racehorses while he was based in the United States. He presents a racehorse’s life from birth to death. Various oral interviews of those involved in the racing industry are combined with footage of horses forced to comply with their cruel fate. Pacer, titled after horses’ man-made gait of pacing, appeals for compassion, asking for more than a utilitarian relationship to animals for entertainment and greed.
