Amur Tiger in the Third Millennium

It is an uneasy talk about the destiny of the rare cat that lives together with us, Russians, on the same land. The severe plot of the film reminds a western, but the action takes place not in the Wild West but in the Russian Far East. And the shots and cuts here are of the same despair. The killed tigers and cut down cedars fall on the ground and will never rise again. The last scene of the film is the famous picture of Vladimir Putin kissing the Amur tiger. This symbolic gesture shows the hope of thousands of people that a tiger has a chance to survive.
