I think I'll kick a horse (Original title: National Lampoon 's Animal House ) is an American feature film - comedy directed by John Landis from 1978.
action
The East Coast of the United States, 1962: In the fictional Faber College , freshmen have to look for a suitable student union , as they do every year . The connections are subject to the rector and therefore certain rules, such as a limited number of days on which alcohol may be consumed. The house "Delta Tau Chi" hardly adheres to any of the rules, for them alcohol, sex and wild (toga) parties are part of everyday student life; academic performance, on the other hand, lag significantly behind. The Deltas are also in constant conflict with the elitist and reactionary association of the Omegas, also known as XX , which is close to the rector. When the Omegas succeed, with the help of the Rector, in banning the deltas' fraternity, they take revenge on the mayor, the Rector and the Omegas in the homecoming parade. At the end of the film, the most important characters are presented with their future résumés.
