The film focuses entirely on the biological and survivalist realities of animal life. It contains no depictions of gender identity or sexual orientation.

The narrative avoids traditional anthropomorphic tropes that assign rigid gender roles to animals. Characters are defined by species-specific behaviors rather than human-centric hierarchies.

Setting the story in Istanbul provides a rich, non-Western backdrop. This avoids Anglo-centric urban environments by centering the narrative on a major Turkish metropolis.

The film portrays the city as an indifferent ecosystem rather than a pinnacle of human achievement. It prioritizes a secular, non-human worldview focused on survival.

The protagonists navigate a world of sensory overload and physical obstacles. This mirrors the challenges faced by marginalized entities navigating hostile, complex environments.
