In the 12th century, when only men would ride horses, a solitary horsewoman in the forest of Gambaga (northen Ghana) captures the curiosity of a hunter, who begins to follow her in secret. A love story steeped in local legend, The Runaway was inspired by the myth of the Mossi people and by the image of the stallion, the national emblem of Burkina Faso.
