Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron (or simply Spirit) is a 2002 American animated western drama film produced by DreamWorks Animation and distributed by DreamWorks Pictures. The film was written by John Fusco and directed by Kelly Asbury and Lorna Cook in her directional debut was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature. From an idea by Jeffrey Katzenberg, who produced with Mireille Soria. In contrast to the way animals are portrayed in an anthropomorphic style in other animated features, Spirit and his fellow horses communicate with each other through sounds and body language. Spirit's thoughts are narrated by his voice actor Matt Damon. The film combines traditional animation and computer animation.

The songs and score were composed by Bryan Adams and Hans Zimmer. The opening theme song for the film, "Here I Am" was composed by Bryan Adams, Gretchen Peters, and Hans Zimmer. It was produced by Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis. The song "Don't Let Go", performed by Bryan Adams with Sarah McLachlan on harmonies and piano, plays during the ending credits. It was written by Bryan Adams, Gavin Greenaway, Robert John "Mutt" Lange, and Gretchen Peters. Many of the songs and arrangements were set in the American West, with themes based on love, landscapes, brotherhood, struggles, and journeys. Garth Brooks was originally supposed to compose and record songs for the film, but the deal fell through.
