Prison inmates ride wild horses at the Warm Springs Correctional Center creating a dusty, chaotic scene. They are training the mustangs to handle stress and to follow the riders directions in all situations. The horses are auctioned off to the public at the end of the training program. Wardens explain that the men and horses must learn to trust one another.
