Felino

October 2025 Issue

From household cats to mythical panthers, from jaguars in the forest to lions in legend, felines have always prowled through our stories. This program traces their presence across history, culture, and science fiction—creatures at once sacred, feared, and fantastical. The selection brings together works that move between scientific observation and poetic speculation, from intimate portraits of domestic companions to sweeping tales of wild predators and imagined hybrids. Together, these films, essays, and visual experiments reveal the feline world in all its diversity: symbols of mystery, power, fragility, and transformation.
