Slovenia, Croatia, 2024, Ana Čigon, DCP, 5.1., 10 min, digital cut-out, animated film
The film takes place in Catlands, the union of distinct feline territories inhabited by cats of various social statuses. The delicate established status quo is disrupted by newcomers trespassing the lawns of the cats’ united territories. To address this international issue, the most prominent residents devise a cunning plan, one that cannot be executed without harming some innocent victims.
A satire that mirrors Europe’s pressing political issues through the daily ups and downs of relationships among neighbouring cats.
