The Cowboy and the Queen – Watch the trailer for the new documentary

The Cowboy and the Queen chronicles the life of horse whisperer Monty Roberts, a California horse trainer whose nonviolent techniques are a lesson in leading with empathy, trusting your values, and doing the next right thing. His compassionate approach defied all odds and never would have seen the light of day if it weren’t for his unlikely friendship with Queen Elizabeth II, a kindred spirit whose endorsement of Monty’s process popularized his methods worldwide. Through this touching examination of a deep and abiding friendship bridging two completely different worlds, viewers will be inspired to challenge convention by tapping into compassion as the key to navigating a divided world.

The Cowboy and the Queen, directed by Andrea Nevins, received a nomination for the Humanitas Prize 2024 in the documentary category and is an official selection at DocNYC, Santa Barbara International Film Festival, Berkshire International Film Festival (Jury Award), Boulder International Film Festival (Impact Award) and Sedona International Film Festival (Indie Spirit Award).

In US Cinemas on 6th September. Available to Stream Exclusively on MasterClass from 12th September.
