Hundreds of thousands of cats roam the metropolis of Istanbul freely. For thousands of years they've wandered in and out of people's lives, becoming an essential part of the communities that make the city so rich. Claiming no owners, these animals live between two worlds, neither wild nor tame, and they bring joy and purpose to those people they choose to adopt. In Istanbul, cats are the mirrors to the people, allowing them to reflect on their lives in ways nothing else could.

" ... Showcases both the warm-hearted people of this ancient Turkish city and the seamless integration of its felines into everyday life."--Toronto Star.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS

great movie for the cat lover! submitted by bookher on June 23, 2018, 6:23pm Loved this movie! How wonderful to see all the kind people in Turkey watch out for and care for these feral cats who live all around this port city.

Gotta be a cat lover...or want to see Istanbul. submitted by LVDS on August 6, 2018, 10:32pm BEAUTIFUL photography of cats, their lives and the people who love them with scenes of everyday life in Istanbul!! Fascinating to see ordinary life in Turkey, often filmed at cat level.
This film does not really have a story line. It has subtitles, yet there's not much Turkish monalogue, so plenty of time to enjoy the views and not worry about reading the script.

Practice your Turkish submitted by sara on August 19, 2018, 2:37pm Not quite sure why this film got rave reviews. I enjoyed practicing Turkish while watching. But, unless you are into cats or practicing your Turkish, I'm not sure you would like it.

Fun submitted by lstorc on August 27, 2018, 4:42pm It's delightful to see cats so respected! It's also humorous to see the exact opposite of extreme of that respectfulness. This was a fun documentary.
