The Musical Slave - "NO PLAN" (a song about a horse yard in Dublin)

"No Plan" - winner of the audience award for best short documentary, at the Irish Film Institute´s Documentary Film Festival, in 2017.
"No Plan" was screened in numerous festivals, including the 29th Galway Film Festival in Ireland, Irish Screen America in New York, and Panorama Eurofilm in Cairo.
In a part of Dublin known as the Liberties, which is also where the Vikings settled 1000 years ago, there is a small community of rebel horse owners. And a few years ago, a travelling street musician who goes by the name, "The Musical Slave", accidentally crashed her van into the wall of one of their urban horse yards - and out came a horse and a few boys. One of them brought her for a spin with a horse and two-wheeler, and from that day on she was hooked. She ended up buying her own horse and moving him into the yard...
The Musical Slave is a musician and filmmaker from Norway. She plays tropical punk and sings about people, cosmic forces, and the world economy. She also makes short films that combine the genres of documentary, fiction and music video.

    This exactly captures the joy of being a teacher- seeing the amazingness of every kid and helping them feel their power that is unique and individual, and how they contribute to the whole. Her art flows via a pure channel from an open heart and a free imagination. And she uses it to lift people up! To see that something that some might criticize is actually a strength when it is harnessed. Horse metaphor intended! Bless you for your gift!

Racing up and down the hills, crossing a river with the water covering your knee… the clatter of hoofs when entering town… funny how memory works, it’s just what coffee does, brings great memories and feelings back to life.
