Steven Spielberg dirige una película de aventuras ambientada en la Primera Guerra Mundial y que sigue la amistad entre un chico llamado Albert (Jeremy Irvine) y su caballo, Joey. Cuando el conflicto bélico les separe, Joey se convertirá en la inspiración de hombres de distintos bandos: caballeros británicos, soldados alemanes e, incluso, granjeros franceses. Pero Joey nunca olvidará todo lo que Albert hizo por él y siempre tendrá en mente la esperanza de reencontrarse con su amo... a pesar de las tenebrosas zonas de guerra que tendrá que atravesar.
