The hackney carriage, once the fastest means of transportation for aristocrats and commoners, is now a cliché-ridden Viennese cultural asset, a popular tourist attraction and an object of hate for animal rights activists.

The rhythm of the horses determines their pace and they are dependent on tourism. Ulli Gladik and her team portray five horse-drawn carriage drivers: we are with them in the stables, see them on their tours, experience them at their stables in St. Stephen's Cathedral, handling their horses and in discussions with animal rights activists.
