FOR THOUSANDS OF YEARS ...


For thousands of years,  cats  have roamed the streets of the city  now known as Istanbul.
They have watched empires rise and fall.
They have endured as the city cycled through famine and feast.
And through it all,  they have had no single master.
Instead in a strange love affair,
the city's inhabitants care for them in admiration of theirgrace and independence.

The Turkish documentary, Kedi, is sweet and loving, filled with beautiful visuals of cats and the surprisingly moving and fanciful thoughtsof those who know them.

Midnight and I drift off to sleepwatching the fluid tracking shots filmed at cat eye level. 

If you are a cat loveror interested in foreign cultures,try Kedi.
You won't be sorry.
