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 Russia’s Far East 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.
