About the film
Rescued Hearts is a powerful documentary exploring the miracles, mystery, and science of healing with horses.
Inspired by a life-changing moment when a 7-year-old child diagnosed with autism spoke his first words while interacting with a horse, filmmakers Dana Croschere and Krisanna Sexton set out to understand what makes the horse-human connection so powerful.
What they never expected was how deeply the journey would transform their own lives, including helping to heal the relationship between Dana and her father.
Through real stories, raw vulnerability, and scientific insight, Rescued Hearts is an invitation back to the heart, where healing, presence, and possibility begin.
