Cat Ladies

Rosie | Video | Thursday, 07 May 2009

Hot Docs, an international documentary film festival, being held in Toronto Ontario, is currently featuring a film called Cat Ladies. In an attempt to overcome the stereotype of the cat lady, four women are profiled who each house between three and over one hundred felines. In the film, the women speak openly about their lives, which gives the audience some insight into the factors which underlie their intense relationship with cats.

Whether the film is successful in its aim, or only promotes the stereotype of the cat lady, is in the eye of the beholder. Since I have not personally viewed the film, I’ll leave the reviews to the professionals. If you would like to investigate further, I’ll supply the links below. For now, here is the trailer from which you can draw your conclusions.
