Old Man and Tiger

About this title

The film introduces a public official in Mungyeong who claims that wild tigers still live on the Korean Peninsula. People assume they must be in high mountains or deep caves, but he insists they live closer than we imagine. Why do we place tigers in remote, unseen places, convinced they are gone? The film follows the official into a dark cave, in pursuit of the tiger he witnessed, along with faceless boars and a deer that fell from a cliff.​
