Strangers

A Man, A Cat, and Three Women. Geschreven door Sara Rahimi.

Samenvatting

Set in an surreal reality in which cats can speak, we follow the young, unnamed protagonist, who’s secluded himself from the outside world. Taunted by images from the past and the discomfort of the present, the young man is confronted with his solitude. With a talking cat as a companion, he ventures out into the outside world to find the meaning of life. But in doing so, he confronts parts of himself he wished had remained hidden.
