What happens

The Young Black Stallion is a 2003 American drama film produced by Walt Disney Pictures. Directed by Simon Wincer, the film is based on the 1989 novel of the same name by Black Stallion creator Walter Farley and his son Steven Farley. Noted for its beautiful scenery and wide-angle shots, the 50-minute film was shot on-location in the deserts of Namibia and South Africa. The film stars Biana G. Tamimi as Neera, a young girl who befriends a young black stallion, and Patrick Elyas as Aden, although his voice was dubbed by Eric Grucza, who, for his uncredited performance, was nominated in 2004 for a Young Artist Award for Best Performance in a Voice-Over Role. The film is Disney’s first production made specifically for IMAX theaters, and a prequel to United Artists/Ford Coppola's award winning 1979 film The Black Stallion. Originally scheduled for fall 2002, it was postponed until September 2003, before debuting in select IMAX theaters in the United States on December 25, 2003. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
