Director's Statement

I like cinema that reveals a number of ambivalent positions. I want to make movies that explore blurred areas and the ambivalence that can be found in individuals...

... I wanted my hero to have to make a choice, and a moral choice is a film noir code. In choosing to confront a thriller, I myself wanted to take on the unbending codes of
that specific genre...

...during my research, the image of the tiger quickly came to me: An instinctive animal thatprotects his own. The baby has teeth, claws, but he doesn’t know how to use them yet. This is the story the film tells: Many is a young tiger who has to try out his claws for the first time.
