Just An Illusion

Overview

Based on a true story, this short film tells the story of the Kelly brothers. Horse racing is a huge part of their lives, so when they had the opportunity to buy a horse, they leaped at the chance. Things aren't going exactly to plan when the race day for Just An Illusion comes. Tensions are high, especially as this is the first race the Kellys will be attending without their father, the man who introduced them to the world of horses.
