Summary
  1. "The Chinese word for horse looks like a horse." So begins this animated presentation of a Chinese fable about the meeting between horse and man. The horse convinces man that with cooperation, and a little "horse-sense," he can prosper. The story is illustrated with animated characters or pictograms. In addition to telling a classic folktale, the film enables the viewer to read and interpret language as it first appeared in simple, pictographic form.
