Dialysis of the commonality with humans

A warm documentary of cats running around the street. You can see all kinds of cartons to transform the kitty house and self-organized donations to rescue injured and sick cats to make cat food to feed the street cats. The incident happened in Istanbul and reminds me of the ancient Byzantium. A historically magnificent city like Constantinople is also a paradise for cats. They are the elves of this city.

Hello Kitty stickers for door frames are really cute and steal the spotlight

In the film, a patient with a bad mental state was very desperate and confused. In the company of a cat, he found the joy of life and the ability to regain love. Another lady even had to use ten kilograms of chicken breast every day, seven days a week. The cat food was distributed to her own cats and the sixty street cats outside. She believed that she fed these cats to heal their wounds so as to heal her wounds. In fact, it means to redeem herself and obtain the fetters of healing the soul. It's not just a story of a person's pet, but a dialogue between life and life

I like the end of the movie: a cat meows on your feet and looks up at you. In fact, this is the smile of life to you. Those lucky moments remind us that we are still alive.

    Intimacy with this animal + memories of this city = love for the world

    Although it is a documentary, it is not dull at all. There is no expert preaching, only the interaction between ordinary citizens and city citizens-cats. A large number of shots from the perspective of cats are vivid and beautiful, but cute but not stupid. In each short story, people and cats have different personalities. The discussion on the relationship between people and cats is more delicate, but the problems and contradictions brought by the coexisting cities are not discussed in depth. Warm, interesting and heart-warming work.

Kedi quotes

  • Bülent Üstün: Down the hill in Cihangir, there used to be a big harbor during the Ottoman era. Ships from Norway and elsewhere would come with cargo. Sailors would keep cats on board to fend off rats. As cargo was being unloaded, cats would get off the boat thinking that they'd made it to land. And trek up to the top of the hill. Later, they'd miss the boat and begin life here in Cihangir. Now, there are countless kinds of cats in this area. Norwegian cats, and cats from all over the world. There's a lot of variety. Later, the first Ottoman sewers were built in this part of the city. And giant rats would terrorize residents. That's why every house had a cat. To fend off the giant sewer rats.

  • Unnamed Human Resident of Istanbul: The streets seem empty to me without cats but it's a strange situation. It's a total dilemma if you ask me. The city no longer accommodates them. But at home, and I know from my own cats they forget their cat-ness after a while.
