Rooted in real events, Horse of Nature unfolds in the remote Cascade–Siskiyou Mountains along the Oregon‑California border, where the 400‑person community of Henley‑Hornbrook sits. In 2018, a deadly wind‑whipped 38,000-acre wildfire swept through the town, altering lives and landscapes alike. This documentary follows several survivors and a storied herd of cultural‑heritage wild horses that aided the fight against what became known as the Klamathon Fire.
