 We discuss the documentary film Stray that follows dogs on the streets of Istanbul, Turkey and examines their daily lives and their search for food, shelter and at times, company. The dogs are not defined by relationships with people, yet their lives often intersect with a group of teenagers who are refugees from Syria. Turkey is one of the few countries that prohibits killing stray dogs. Stray | Official Movie Website | A Magnolia Pictures Film | Directed ... https://www.straymovie.com/
