Giant Screen Film Looks at Famed Spanish Riding School of Vienna

March 11, 2008, Harrington Park, NJ... Janson Media today announced the release to worldwide television, VOD, and new media markets of MAJESTIC WHITE HORSES: THE SPANISH RIDING SCHOOL OF VIENNA. The latest release in the company’s Giant Screen Films Collection, now available in HDTV, captures the heart and mystique of this great animal, focusing on the Lippizans of Austria, and their home, the internationally famous Spanish Riding School of Vienna.

Horses are and always have been an essential part of human civilization. Our natural connection with and dependence on this most elegant and courageous animal is the result of both epic and historical fact. For thousands of years, horses have helped humanity evolve and grow. This film uses as its centerpiece the world’s most famous horses, the Lippizans of Austria.

MAJESTIC WHITE HORSES follows the development of this incredible animal - from birth, through its youth, and ultimately to the crowning achievement of its entrance into the School. The Spanish Riding School is a Viennese legend and, in todays ever-changing world, a rare and irreplaceable part of world culture. For over four hundred years this Baroque masterwork of architecture has been the home and center of a unique and timeless classical style of riding. Part of the film also retraces the fascinating quest for the true bloodline of the Lippizan horse. This quest takes the audience on a visual odyssey through Arabia, Morocco, Spain, and Slovenia.

Produced in 2001 for release in Giant Screen theaters, MAJESTIC WHITE HORSES: THE SPANISH RIDING SCHOOL OF VIENNA (1 x 38’), is now available for the first time to worldwide television, VOD, and new media markets exclusively through Janson Media.
