At the beginning of the First World War, Albert sees his beloved horse, Joey, sold to the cavalry and shipped to France. Although too young to join the Army, Albert sets out to find his friend, who has been thrust into fighting on both sides of the frontline. Charging through gunfire and hauling ambulances through mud, Joeys loyalty and gentle spirit never waver. This is a story of bravery, kindness and friendship through the toughest times.
