In a city concerned with beauty, the short-legged and tangled horse Fritz must stay outside the walls. Longing to be a part of the city, the kind and hard-working Fritz went unnoticed. 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.
