Tiger (Tiguere)
February 26 | 8:00 am - 5:00 pm
Director: José María Cabral
2024 Dominican Republic | 84 minutes
Pablo is sent to a camp run by his father, where strength is demanded and fear is treated as failure. Within its rigid rules, he is taught how to endure, obey, and perform a version of masculinity (Dominican tigueraje) that leaves little room for doubt. As Pablo forms fragile connections and questions the lessons imposed on him, the film drifts between intimacy and fragmentation. Tiger is a tense coming-of-age portrait of control, inheritance, and the forces that shape who we become. Best Feature Nominee, 2025 Guadalajara International Film Festival.
