In a city concerned with beauty, the unattractive horse Fritz must stay outside the walls. Although kind and hard-working, Fritz goes unnoticed and is not welcomed into the city. However, when disaster strikes, the gentle and courageous Fritz is the only horse willing and able to save the children. This simple story provides a meaningful lesson in kindness, respect, and honesty.
