Multi-Screening: KY Place: Hemp State, Wild Lands, Wild Horses

KY Place: Hemp State

Hemp has slowly been making a comeback in the United States, and Kentucky is leading the way. But questions remain about the equity, sustainability, and overall future of the broader cannabis industry.

Wild Lands, Wild Horses

America’s wild horses are in crisis.

For centuries horses have ploughed our fields and carried us into battle.

Caught in the crossfire over land use rights and a shrinking wild landscape, America’s wild horses are struggling to survive.

Some still roam wild, but those thousands that have been gathered are held in government contracted facilities with little hope for adoption.

150 million acres of western public lands belong to all of us, and we can do right by its wildlife. But the issues are complex, and won’t be solved by shouting on social media.

Join wildlife photographers Jamie Baldanza and Deb Lee Carson on their mission to document America’s most elusive herds of wild horses and examine their politically complicated lives. 

In the docuseries Wild Lands Wild Horses, beautiful cinematography is woven into exclusive conversations with scientists, ranchers, government officials, and wildlife advocates, who — despite their differences — all share the same goal:

TO KEEP THE WEST WILD.
