- Synopsis
- Poet LEE Yong-han became enthralled by stray cats living in his neighborhood. Cats like to stay in their territory so he could see them often and as he recorded their daily lives in pictures, he gave them names such as ’Bessie’ and ‘Blossom’. The pictures were published in a book entitled ‘Bye Kitty, and Thank You’.
  I am a commercial film director. I stumbled across the poet’s book in the library and became interested in stray cats. There are a lot of stray cats in my neighborhood. I capture their lives on film. Giving them names like ‘Darth Snooze’, ‘Sweetness’ and ‘Thundercat’ and giving them food and water, I felt a change in myself.
  LEE Yong-han moved to Yangpyeong and took a cat with him. And he meets more in his new town. I learned while filming that many people care for the stray cats and give them food and I asked for interviews with them.
