It's the time of the N@zis, and a 17 year old Jew boy, Jakob and his guardian, Herr Engel, set off on a journey with their horses to a safer place as they know that a German officer wants to steal their Lipizzanner stallions for meat to give to the Nazis. They have to trek through the Austrian Mountains to get out of N@zi territory, as Herr's farm isn't safe.

It's around the middle of the journey and they're walking along a dusty road, and they cross a river. They let the horses drink.
