Ahead of its world premiere at the Sundance Film Festival next month, Focus Features has released a trailer for the upcoming drama The Mustang. Directed by Laure de Clermont-Tonnerre, the film stars Matthias Schoenaerts, Connie Britton, Bruce Dern, Jason Mitchell, Gideon Adlon, and Josh Stewart; watch it here…
Roman (Matthias Schoenaerts), a convict in a rural Nevada prison who struggles to escape his violent past, is required to participate in an “outdoor maintenance” program as part of his state-mandated social rehabilitation. Spotted by a no-nonsense veteran trainer (Bruce Dern) and helped by an outgoing fellow inmate and trick rider (Jason Mitchell), Roman is accepted into the selective wild horse training section of the program, where he finds his own humanity in gentling an especially unbreakable mustang.
The Mustang is set for release on March 15th.
