Tigers are the subject of myths and folktales, poetry and art. Half a century ago, in the jungles of India, a young forest officer rallied the world to save tigers from extinction. Today, the creed is carried on in Far East Russia by the guardians of the last Siberian tigers, who risk everything to save the species.
Directed by Academy®-Award winning filmmaker Ross Kauffman (“Born into Brothels,”) and produced by Oscar® winner Fisher Stevens (“The Cove”), “Tigerland” is the story about our relationship with one of the world’s most revered creatures.
Featuring Noted Russian conservationist Pavel Fomenko and Indian conservationists Amit Sankhala and Jai Bhati, the grandson and great-grandson of the original “Tiger Man of India,” Kailash Sankhala.
In theaters March 22nd in Los Angeles at Monica Center and March 29th in New York at Cinema Village. Available on Discovery Go March 23rd.
