Germany has a rich tradition of Amateurfilme (home movies) and Schülerfilme (student films). Some were distributed on VHS via small mail-order catalogs. If Novemberkatzen was a 30–60 minute student film from the Hochschule für Film und Fernsehen Potsdam-Babelsberg (then East Germany’s film school), it might exist only as a single DVD transfer from a professor’s copy.
The narrative centers on (played by Angela Hunger), an 11-year-old girl growing up in a marginalized, socially disadvantaged rural village. The title serves as a metaphor: "November cats" are those born late in the year—traditionally viewed by farmers as weak, hard to raise, and unlikely to survive the winter.

Das Drehbuch, das gemeinsam von Mirjam Pressler und Sigrun Koeppe verfasst wurde, zeigt die brutale, entbehrungsreiche Realität der Nachkriegszeit in Westdeutschland, ohne nostalgische Verklärung. Kritiker beschrieben den Film als einen "Heimatfilm, der kein Volksstück ist", der still, schlicht und ohne bewusste Aufarbeitung der Historie auskommt.
"Novemberkatzen" holds a place in the cinematic exploration of youth culture and societal challenges in late 20th-century Germany.
