Apprehension (2007)

2' 56

Narrated by Mary Healy and music by Jeff Harbourne

Apprehension is the name of a race horse. The film’s spoken narrative, a story about the delivery of a package in a time when electricity and water are scarce, was constructed using a list of the names of the horses in Apprehension’s ‘breeding tree’ found on the internet. In differing to the narrative the imagery references the source of the work showing edited home movie footage of horse shows from the 1950's.  

Each horse name appears in the story in the order in which it appears in the breeding tree below.
