When I Killed The Cat explores the depth of perception through Jim, a different kind of thinker and unusual perceiver. It shows the layers present in the human condition, revealing its mysteries and uniqueness. Psychological and cognitive characteristics are very present in the visual narrative, living through Jim's mental circumstances. They show a true and visceral vulnerability that keeps evolving as minutes go by. We get to know a man frightened by his shadows and traumas, still deeply attached to memories. We get to know the cause of his fear too, and his inner voice through an ambiguous mother figure. It all happens fast and progressively, when Jim's friend ask him to take care of her cat. But, is it really just a cat? Is it really just a friend? The tragedy of a broken perspective comes alive in every dialogue and gesture. It brings to light that, sometimes, when broken memories make it to the surface, everything else yearns to feel wrecked.
