Don’t Feed the Stray Cats is part of Asian Movie Night Autumn Edition titled Cat Got Your Tongue. With a surprise visit of the Director Jeong Jugee, this is a special screening of this heartwarming film in Amsterdam.
Na Young is a "cat mom" caring for stray cats day and night. Due to her disability and worsening conditions, she cannot afford to arrange her meals, yet she continues to care for cats. People blame her for it, but Na Young continues to live and care in this way. The director found Na Young through her diary postings on an online cat mom community. Her writings contained various emotions and experiences of companionship with non-human beings. This film questions what social care is, and how we can go beyond a human-centric ableist sense of caring and belonging.
