Stray

This unique documentary explores what it means to live as a being without status or security. We meet the independent Zeytin, a nurturing Nazar and shy puppy Kartal—three stray dogs roaming the alleys of Istanbul. Their disparate lives intersect when they each form intimate bonds with a group of young Syrians with whom they share the streets. Director Elizabeth Lo's award-winning film is a critical observation of human civilization through the unfamiliar gaze of dogs and a sensory voyage into new ways of seeing.
