Gauchos / Episode 1 / Saddling Up The World

Welcome to the first episode of "Saddling Up the World".
Gauchos. (Part I)
We explore deep into the souls and hearts of 4 Brazilian gauchos to try to understand what it takes to be a Gaucho and their relationships with their horses and their land.
Saddling Up the World" is a series that presents in each episode human stories and stories of horses, and the unique experiences that result when these merge into one. Our quest is to decode that spiritual dialogue that invades every space that has been touched by a horseman and his horse.
These are the stories of men and women on horseback. Of an alliance that was forged millennia ago, and today flourishes beyond civilizations and languages.
