Synopsis

Equine erotica

Following the hospitalisation of her sister Zara, the shy and introvert Eva is forced to take on a project as a Foley artist creating horse sounds for a commercial, which includes dealing with Zara’s obnoxious director. As she becomes more obsessed with the project, a horsetail starts mysteriously growing out of Eva’s body, giving her a new sense of empowerment. As the tail continues to grow so does Eva’s confidence and she uses her new-found boldness to seduce an enigmatic botanist.
