A day in the life of, we follow a young boy by the name of Riley as he journeys around the Bradford area collecting scrap to sell for a profit – with his horse, Rambo.
Riley & Rambo is a seemingly simplistic documentary that brings us the bond between a child and his horse. However, beneath the service, it also gives us this brief gateway into the Gypsy community, seen through the eyes of a child.
Despite the innocence of Riley, there’s a lot to be said about – not just – the pride he has for his community but also his independence. Aside from the filmmakers, there isn’t a grownup in sight and here we have this young boy taking control of a fully grown horse, going from door to door and making a living.
Above all else, here we have a documentary that manages to send a really inspiring message in a very short amount of time.
Not necessarily to the extent of what is being showcased, but it certainly evokes that it isn’t a bad thing to loosen those apron strings. And above all else, here we have a documentary that manages to send a really inspiring message in a very short amount of time.
