Windstorm [Ostwind] is a drama film that tells the story of a young girl, Mika (Hanna Binke), and her journey to discover her true passion in life. Mika, a rebellious teenager, is sent to her grandmother’s stud farm for the summer as a punishment for her misbehaviour. She is determined to make her time there as miserable as possible, but everything changes when she meets a wild horse named Windstorm.

Windstorm is a beautiful, spirited horse that no one can tame. He is unpredictable, and everyone at the stud farm is afraid of him. But, Mika sees something special in Windstorm and feels a deep connection with him. With the help of her grandmother and a young horse trainer named Sam (Marvin Linke), Mika begins to gain Windstorm's trust and tries to train him. As she spends more time with Windstorm, Mika discovers a passion for horses and starts to understand the meaning of friendship and responsibility.
