Plot summary

At Turkey’s oldest zoo, a lonely manager and a neglected female officer form an unlikely bond: as they hide the death of the zoo’s oldest inhabitant, an Anatolian leopard, in order to stop the privatization process and fake its escape, they set in motion an absurd charade that spins out of control. In Turkey’s grey and quiet capital, the ghost of the leopard persists.

O brave new world

When you've worked at a job for 22 years and find that it's all been for naught, what do you do? This is the question faced by the protagonist, the director of the Ankara zoo. The zoo's Anatolian leopard, a rare, protected animal, is the only thing that stands between the zoo of the past 22 years and the Aladdin's Magic Lamp amusement park of the future. The leopard is a classic MacGuffin: the film's real concern is exploring how the director deals with the death of the world he knew and whether he embraces the one to come. Appropriately autumnal in feeling, it is slowly paced (perhaps a bit too slow in the second half) but also has a dry sense of humour. The actors are uniformly excellent and the photography, mostly in mid- and wide shots, ravishing. The themes resonate not only in Türkiye, but everywhere the joys of privatization beckon.

Maybe next time.

The director's first feature film. Maybe that's why the characters are so fake. The movie can't decide whether to be a detective movie or a drama movie.

However, it could have been a very successful detective drama.

The actors and actresses are high-quality names, they do their best, but when the script and directing are weak, everything is up in the air.
