Born in a Barn SYNOPSIS: BORN IN A BARN centers around four characters living in the Washington, D.C. area: Michelle (ponygirl Mischief), a 40 year-old with the adventurous soul of a teenager; Bill (trigger), a real-estate agent in his late 40′s; and Goody (RedHot Pony) and his girlfriend/ trainer Andrea, a couple who count role-play of all kinds among their favorite pastimes. We follow trigger in his role as ambassador of ponyplay – explaining its intricacies to potential players and doggedly pursuing his extraordinary ambition of finding a place where he can stay in role as a horse 24/7, permanently. We accompany ponygirl Mischief as she begins to understand and define her new pony persona and starts the training that she hopes will help her fully develop. Andrea and Goody are the film’s third and fourth characters, a well-costumed couple whose fun-loving approach to ponyplay is the most versatile of all.
