Let's all learn how to slow down ...
2035: In the shadow of a race course, a young woman finds a robot named Coli on a scrap heap, contemplating the sky. Intrigued, she takes him into her care and learns how he is designed to be a humanoid jockey who has mistakenly been programmed to have feelings.
She and Coli are determined to rescue his beloved race horse who is heading for the knackers' yard after a lifetime of overwork. To remind the horse of happier times, they hatch a special plan to let her run another race.
But it will be no ordinary event—they will train her to run the slowest time of her life.
In the heat of the race, Coli feels the horse running too fast. She is in pain and will soon injure herself.
To save his friend, Coli will commit one final act of bravery ...
Radiant, urgent, deeply moving, A Thousand Blues is a hymn to our earth and to our humanity, giving powerful voice to those left behind in a fast-moving world of toxic productivity and competition. Brimming with heart, hope and rage, it shows how friendship, community and sacrifice will set us free.
