The Truth Behind the Tradition
Overview
The horse-drawn carriage industry in New York City is highly controversial. Animal rights activists say that the operation of horse-drawn carriages should be banned because it is inhumane and unsafe. Through original footage and interviews with carriage drivers, veterinary experts, accident witnesses, leading animal rights activists, city politicians, tourists, residents who live near the horses and people who have rescued carriage horses from slaughter, Blinders takes viewers behind the scenes to expose the truth behind the tradition.
