Volunteers from Cyprus, Greece, Romania and the United States open their homes and their hearts, becoming a voice for the 200 000 000 voiceless strays of the world and inspiring us to pitch in.

The documentary is an independent production about stray animals and volunteer work, filmed in five countries, and is the outcome of seven-year-long research and filming. It was produced by Blunatic Pictures, in collaboration with Crewhouse Media and FullMoon Productions, as well as through volunteer work, crowdfunding, the contribution of private sponsors and the valuable support of the Cultural Services and of the Ministry of Agriculture. Its main aim is to raise awareness about the causes and the solutions to the problem and to mobilize the public. Its cinematic release arrives at the right time, considering this past summer marked a record in abandonments of pets in Cyprus, not only due to the holidays, but also as a consequence of the numerous pet purchases that took place during the pandemic, and their uncontrolled reproduction. Apart from the production of the documentary, Blunatic Pictures has been raising awareness on the stray issue for several years, by creating short educational videos, organizing events, lectures and book presentations, and will continue to do so.
