About this movie

Through the eyes of three stray dogs wandering the streets of Istanbul, STRAY explores what it means to live as a being without status or security. As they search for food and shelter, Zeytin, Nazar and Kartal embark on inconspicuous journeys through society that allow us an unvarnished portrait of human life - and their own canine culture. The disparate lives of Zeytin, Nazar and Kartal intersect when they each form intimate bonds with a group of young Syrians who share the streets with them.

Ratings and reviews

Why is nobody talking about how they put tracking chips in the dogs that were featured in the movie and teased them with food to act a certain way?

Dogs are not terrorizing the cities. It's man's fault. You stupid idiot are spreading misleading messages.

A truly innovative and mesmerizing movie. Totally authentic and in a class of it's own. This is a new standard in cinematography.
