Summary - Great 4.0
Kedi is a movie for cat lovers, perhaps the first movie for cat lovers. This documentary about stray cats is often shot from a cat’s eye view. But more than that, Kedi is deeply in tune with feline characteristics.
Cat lovers know the signs: the gracefulness, the hauteur, the affection, the napping. Kedi includes several humans who love the cats it profiles, but the humans are quite secondary to the felines, appropriate for the most self-possessed of creatures. They live in Istanbul, making Kedi something of a cat’s eye travelogue of that ancient city, albeit it is much more about seven cats than about Turkey’s largest metropolis.
Love cats? Kedi is the rare documentary worth a trip to the theater, and surely worth watching on-demand.

Per Wikpedia, director Ceyda Torun and crew identified 35 cats, filmed nineteen and chose seven to feature. Brilliant work!
