| Abstract | A Syrian man named Alaa stays behind in the war-torn city of Aleppo, driving an ambulance for those who need medical care. He notices hungry cats in the city who have been abandoned by their owners and begins to care for them. After more cats show up, he realizes that he can't do it alone and calls on others in the community and the world to help him care for them. |
