Ignatz and Krazy Kat


First broadcast 22 July 2012 on 360documentaries, ABC RN



The relationship between a cat and a mouse in an old comic strip by George Herriman triggers ponderings on so-called unrequited love. The pursuer and the pursued, the lover and the beloved … what's in it for either of them? What keeps these out of balance relationships in balance? 

This story won a bronze medal at the 2012 New York Festival.
