Tiger

Visually stunning, especially for a film shot on a shoestring budget, but regrettably a bit too all-over-the-place from a narrative perspective.

Tiger might be the most 'informative' film that I've seen in recent times that isn't a documentary. I knew a bit about how conservative Japan (still) can be towards the LHBTQ+ community, but Tiger provided me with more information on that. All the things that these people must do to hide their identity from their families just to fulfill the picture perfect of an ideal family left me a bit depressed. Fortunately there are organisations that, for example, help arrange marriages between gay men and woman so they can act to the outside world that they are happy together, but still can live their actual lifes and engage in a relationship they really want. The movie it self is filled with good acting performances, with Tiger being the real star. The arc he goes through with his own dreams and the harsh demanding reality of his family was an interesting one to watch. Tiger is another highlight of this years Camera Japan Festival.

really enjoyed the multiples plots here, mostly because i dont feel like one overcame the other. being a lgbt person feels so lonely sometimes and taiga just wanted to feel belonged somewhere, even if happens to be in places he cant fill in or is not welcomed or will only harm him in the future#15 49º mostra de sp
