Documentary · 1h 48m
From Ji-hlava film festival catalogue: For seven years, the director follows the life of Ceci, a stray cat that gradually settles into his home without ever completely leaving the world of the streets. Their ever-changing relationship forms the backbone of this time-lapse narrative, into which other cats and fragments of the director’s life are woven: unfinished film projects, relationships with neighbours, his deteriorating health, and events unfolding in the city and across the country. (...)This intimate chronicle of an unusual friendship simultaneously records the passage of time and the transformations of a human life, which becomes ever more closely intertwined with that of the cat. “The presence of the cat is central, but not as a character in a narrative sense. Rather, she becomes a point of departure, a way to move away from a human-centred perspective, without replacing it with another fixed position.” — Maani Petgar
