Anatolian Leopard is a 2021 comedy-drama film written and directed by Emre Kayiş. The movie was produced as a collaboration between filmmakers from Turkey, Poland, Germany, and Denmark. In the story, Uğur Polat plays Fikret, who runs a struggling zoo in Ankara. When the zoo’s Anatolian leopard dies, he and his assistant Gamze (Ipek Türktan) must work together to conceal the death.
