The feathered inhabitants of Topkapi Palace make use of stormy winds
to build their nests. Dolphins hunt between ferries and oil tankers. A young
wolf is on the prowl. Separated from his pack on the Asian
shores of the Black Sea, he crosses the Bosphorus and makes his way
deep into the narrow streets and hidden corners of old Istanbul. He is looking
to join a new pack and find a new territory on the European side of the city. The
former world metropolis, stretching across two continents and connecting seas,
fosters extremes and provokes surprising discoveries. Fascinating
wildlife between cultures, seas and continents.
