Hijo de Tigre

2017 · 69 min · Drama

A son who needs to tell his father about his sexual orientation. A father who hopes to see in his son the continued virility he preaches. "Hijo e' Tigre" (Son of the Tiger) is a colloquial expression used by a father when he finds his son a source of pride, discovering that he resembles him, and generally, in the face of an action that makes him resemble the typical "Argentine macho." The film critiques this machismo, still prevalent in our society today.
