Backside

Backside offers an intimate and tender glimpse into the lives of immigrant workers who begin their days at 2 a.m., seven days a week, year-round, caring for some of the world’s most prized racehorses. Set against the backdrop of a racing season at Churchill Downs' barns in Louisville, Kentucky — known as the backside — this observational film reveals the symbiotic relationship of human and animal labor, celebrating the quiet beauty of unseen work and the resilience of those who sustain it.
