The Gokogu Shrine in Japan is not just a spiritual site but also a sanctuary for a group of abandoned cats. Local residents care not only for the shrine’s surroundings but also for its four-legged inhabitants, maintaining a delicate balance between compassion and the need to regulate the cat population. In his observational documentary, Japanese filmmaker Kazuhiro Soda captures this subtle symbiosis between humans, animals, and the sacred space with precision and a sensitivity to the everyday rituals of their harmonious coexistence. Joyful film experience will be enriched by a special guest from the feline community. :)
