2021 Turkish film From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Anatolian Leopard (Turkish: Anadolu Leoparı) is a drama film, directed by Emre Kayiş and released in 2021.[1] A co-production of companies from Turkey, Poland, Germany, and Denmark, the film stars Uğur Polat as Fikret, the director of a failing zoo in Ankara who must conspire with his assistant Gamze (Ipek Türktan) to hide the fact that the zoo's Anatolian leopard has died, as the animal's protected status is the only thing preventing the zoo from being shut down and sold off to real estate developers to build a new amusement park.[2]
