00:00In the mid-1920s, in Cambodia, a pair of tigers live peacefully in the forest,
00:05playing together among the ancient temples. Far away, a large auction of elephant ivory begins,
00:10and members of the upper class compete for the precious items brought by hunters.
00:14At the back of the audience, Aidan watches the scene intently, and realizing that no one seems
00:19interested in the ivory he brought to the auction, he signals for the presenter to move on to the
00:24next item. The man then presents a 13th-century Buddhist statue, which was brought directly from
00:29South Asia. Uninterested in the rest of the auction, Aidan prepares to leave, but upon hearing
00:34several bids being made on the statue, he becomes confused and returns to watch the bidding.
00:39In a few seconds, the statue ends up being sold for a large sum, and realizing how valuable these
00:45items can be, the hunter has an idea. Back in the forest, the pair of tigers continue their day
00:50alongside their new cubs, who explore the river while their parents lie on the bank. During their
00:55exploration, the pair is distracted by a dry coconut, and they begin to play with the object,
01:00venturing deeper and deeper into the forest. At that moment, the siblings end up separating,
01:05and while chasing the coconut through the forest, the little tiger finds a baby skunk. Curious,
01:10the animal begins to chase it, but is quickly surprised by the cub's mother, who scares it away,
01:15causing it to climb one of the trees in fear. Quickly, the other tiger appears to protect his brother,
01:20and realizing that she cannot win that fight, the mother opossum hides back in her den.
01:25Thanks to this, the cub comes down from the tree unharmed, and soon after, the pair hears some
01:30screams in the distance and runs to the cliff to find out what is happening. As they do so,
01:35the little ones see a large group of humans walking through the forest, and sensing the presence of
01:40the intruders, the mother tiger runs to fetch her cubs, bringing them back to the temple. While the cubs
01:45feed alongside their mother, their father climbs the wall to observe the area and sees a camp of
01:50hunters right next to them. The next day, Aiden places several sticks of dynamite around one of
01:55the temple statues, and the explosion wakes up the feline family. After knocking down the main
02:00building, the men begin to collect the remaining statues and pieces of the temple, but suddenly,
02:05one of the hunting dogs detects the presence of the tigers. Alerted, all the hunters rush to get
02:10their weapons, and the frightened mother takes one of her cubs in her mouth, leaving one behind.
02:15Terrified, the cub tries to follow her, but the temple walls are too high,
02:19and he cannot reach his mother. At the same time, the father tiger quickly leaves the scene,
02:24and after a few minutes of searching, the hunters conclude that they have lost sight of their targets.
02:29At that moment, one of the dogs manages to find the cub that was left behind and walks toward it
02:33with its owner. However, before he can get close, the hunter is surprised by the tiger father,
02:39who jumps on him and begins to attack him with his claws. Immediately afterwards, Aiden appears,
02:44shooting at the predator, which is eliminated instantly, leaving the cub in a panic. Seeing its
02:49father's body lying on the ground, the cub approaches to hide under it, and after rescuing
02:54the wounded hunter, the leader orders that the animal's body be taken with them. Before leaving,
02:59Aiden spots the cub hiding just below his feet and decides to take it with him.
03:04Throughout the journey, the cub begins to gain more confidence in the hunter, even allowing him to
03:08dehydrate it with his canteen. Hours later, the hunters stop at one of the peasant villages in the
03:13region, where the chief thanks them for eliminating the tiger, as that species had been responsible for
03:18several attacks on villagers. Soon after, the man says he is excited to know that the hunter has
03:24brought one of the cubs as an extra reward, but Aiden interrupts him, saying he will not take the
03:28little tiger with him. At that moment, a military vehicle appears in the village, and upon seeing the
03:34stolen statues from the ancient temple, Sergeant Van decides to arrest Aiden and take him away in
03:39his truck. Caught off guard, the man ends up leaving the cub in the village, and when he tries to escape
03:44to follow him, the animal is captured by the local chief. Before leaving, the sergeant walks up to the
03:49village chief and hands him a large sum of money as a thank you for reporting the stolen statues.
03:54At dusk, the mother tiger returns to her den in the ancient temple, and when she notices that the
03:59male tiger and her other cub are no longer there, she sets out in search of the rest of her family.
04:04In a few minutes, the tigress reaches the village, and upon hearing her cub crying in the building,
04:09she begins to respond to its roars. This alerts the village chief, who uses his trumpet to summon
04:14all the hunters to their huts. Quickly, the men grab their weapons and throw several torches at
04:19the mother tiger, forcing the animals to leave the area. In a state of rage, the cub pulls itself out
04:25of the tower balcony and ends up falling into a chicken coop. The next day, the little tiger is taken
04:30away by a buyer, and when the mother sees her cub trapped in the vehicle's crate, she becomes
04:35enraged and heads towards it. Seeing her approaching, the animal screams desperately,
04:40making its mother even more furious and causing her to jump on top of the vehicle to rescue it.
04:44However, as soon as he sees the predator in his vehicle, the driver begins to perform several
04:49maneuvers on the road, and the movement causes the animal to fall to the ground. This leaves the cub
04:54completely desperate, and with no energy to continue the chase, the mother tiger watches
04:59the vehicle drive away, desperate for not having been able to save her cub. Far away,
05:04Administrator Eugene arrives at his district's prison, where he is excited to discover that his
05:08guards have arrested Aiden, who is recognized as a major celebrity in the hunting industry.
05:13After releasing him, the man says he wants a share of the treasures found by the hunter,
05:17and soon after, he says he has an important request to make. Meanwhile, the tiger cub is taken
05:22into a large circus tent, where director Zerbino names him Kuma, his newest beast. The man then
05:28introduces his co-workers and Saladin begins to tease the animal, which bites his wrist. Outraged,
05:34the madman punishes the poor cub and locks it in one of the cages, where the small animal notices
05:39that an adult tiger also seems to have been captured by those criminals. Hours later, in the forest,
05:44the mother tiger walks through the area with her other cub, when suddenly the little one gets caught
05:49in one of the alarm nets. This alerts all the hunters, and realizing that they may be in danger,
05:54the animals flee. However, halfway there, the mother tiger steps on another trap and falls into
05:59a giant hole. Worried, the cub approaches to try to help his mother, but this was a terrible idea,
06:05and he ends up falling into the hole with her. Hearing the group of hunters approaching,
06:10the little animal hides under the rubble, and at that moment Aiden appears. Realizing that he has
06:15captured another valuable animal, he asks his men to close the hole for now and leaves to tell Naira,
06:21the village chief's daughter, about his conquest. Meanwhile, the tigers remain trapped in the
06:25hunter's trap, and the next day, Eugene and Aiden are visited by an officer from the French
06:30colonial administration, who is invited to hunt tigers for entertainment. So, the group sets off
06:35on their elephants and begins to walk through the region, but at the trap site, the hatch is lowered by
06:40someone, allowing the tigers to escape. Quickly, the female tiger takes her cub to the den and sets
06:46out to take revenge on the humans. However, as soon as he sees the predator approaching,
06:51the French officer fires his gun at the animal, which falls to the ground instantly, leaving the
06:55cub terrified. With the tiger eliminated, the man leaves to take a photo with the animal's body,
07:01but what he did not realize was that his shot only hit the tigress's ear, who suddenly gets up and
07:06runs away. Upon seeing their superior fall to the ground, the guards try to shoot the animal,
07:11but none of them manage to hit it, and minutes later, they say goodbye to the French officer,
07:15who orders that the animal be brought to him as soon as possible. At that moment, Eugene and his
07:20wife notice that their little dog Bitsy has disappeared along with Raoul, and they search for
07:24both of them in complete despair. Nearby, the boy notices that Bitsy has found the tiger cub hiding in
07:30the den, and in order to calm him down, he asks the little one not to be afraid, as he will not harm
07:36him. Sometime later, Raoul plays in his room with his new friend, who is named Sanga and is welcomed
07:41as the newest member of the family. Meanwhile, Kuma remains trapped in the hut, and the men begin to
07:46get angry when they notice that he is refusing to eat. Realizing that the cub does not seem well,
07:51Cesar, the adult tiger, uses his tail to entertain him, allowing the little tiger to become a little
07:57more animated. Hours later, Zerbino's circus begins another one of its performances, sending Cesar out
08:03to perform the first act of the night. During the preparation, Saladin talks to Zerbino's wife,
08:08and the pair conclude that they are tired of having to deal with the old tiger and plan to sell him to
08:13someone. However, the man says that selling the animal will not be an easy task, as its age will
08:18cause any buyer to lose interest easily. At home, Eugene talks to Aidan during dinner, while Raoul plays
08:24with Sanga under the table. The administrator says he will need another tiger skin to give to the
08:29Frenchman as a gift, since after the incident with his hunt, the man is uncertain about the
08:33negotiations. Although reluctant, Aidan agrees to get another animal, but at that moment, the cub ends
08:39up ringing the butler's bell, who opens the living room door, allowing Bitsy to invade the place.
08:44Because of this, Sanga ends up getting scared of the animal and tries to climb onto the table,
08:49causing everything to fall onto the floor. The next day, Aidan goes to the circus hut,
08:54and when he sees the man who rescued him, Kuma gets excited. As soon as he reunites with his old
08:59friend, the hunter realizes that he has new company so he won't feel lonely, and concludes that it will
09:05be better if he stays with the circus members. While interacting with the cub, Aidan is surprised
09:10by Zerbino and Saladin, who explain that they are looking for a tiger skin that needs to be delivered
09:15as soon as possible. Seeing an opportunity, Saladin says they can provide the skin for a high price,
09:20and even though he knows the price is wrong, the hunter agrees and asks them to use part of the
09:25money to feed the cub. Thus, Caesar is cowardly eliminated so that they can use his skin, and now
09:30that the circus's big star is gone, Saladin moves Kuma to the larger cage, saying that from now on,
09:36he will be the new star. In his palace, the French officer holds a photo shoot with his new tiger skin,
09:42but feels dissatisfied, knowing that this is not the same animal he was hunting that day.
09:46Some time later, Eugene holds a meeting in his office as usual, but while lying on one of the
09:51shelves in his owner's room, Sanga is surprised by Bitsy, who starts barking at him. Suddenly,
09:57the structure on which the cub is standing breaks, causing him to fall to the floor,
10:01and he is forced to run to avoid being attacked by the dog. This chase causes enormous chaos throughout
10:06the residence, and amid the destruction, Sanga runs to the basement to hide. However, Bitsy easily
10:12finds him and attacks him. The problem is that this dispute ends in a tragic way, and when Eugene's
10:18wife runs to the basement to calm the animals down, she is faced with a terrifying scene,
10:22where Bitsy has been eliminated by Sanga. Frightened by the animal's behavior, the woman
10:27orders the authorities to remove him from her home, and as much as Raoul tries to stop them,
10:32the officials push the cub into a vehicle and take him away. Later, Sanga is taken to the French
10:37Prince's dungeon, where several animals are kept imprisoned as if they were trophies of the madman.
10:42A year later, Kuma has grown into an adult tiger, and the circus members begin training the animal,
10:47which receives various punishments until it finally obeys their orders and jumps through
10:51the rings of fire. Suddenly, Zerbino and Saladin are surprised by the arrival of one of the French
10:57Prince's guards, who is organizing a festival with a ceremony in which he will face a ferocious animal
11:02in combat. Therefore, they need an opponent to participate in this duel, and Zerbino replies
11:07that for a good payment, they can provide a great predator to face the Prince's tiger.
11:11In his palace, the Prince shows his wife the new luxurious collar he will put on Sanga,
11:16who has also become an adult tiger, and soon after, the man sits down to interact with his animal for
11:21a few minutes. However, Sanga is no longer as shy as before and acts ferociously, causing the Prince
11:27to give up interacting with him. On the day of the ceremony, Eugene goes to the festival with his
11:32family, and while Zerbino prepares in the arena, visitors sit down to watch the show. At the same
11:38time, Aiden walks to the cage and is devastated to notice that the tiger that will be used for the
11:43fight is none other than the cub he had rescued in the past. Soon after, Zerbino and Saladin appear
11:48and order the man to leave, but he refuses to do so, saying that he had asked them to take good care
11:53of him, not to turn him into an object of entertainment. Realizing that he has no other
11:57choice, Aiden takes the key to the cage and says he will pay whatever price they want to free the
12:02animal. However, Saladin says that the man would not be able to cover such a high price and calls
12:08his subordinates to corner the hunter. Minutes later, the combat ceremony begins, and the musicians
12:13start playing as Sanga is released into the arena. At that moment, Aiden runs to the stands with some
12:19injuries and asks Naira to accompany him to leave that place immediately. Seeing Sanga running through
12:23the arena, Raul begins to shout, saying that this is the tiger he took care of when it was still a
12:29cub, but Eugene tries to deceive him, saying that his old friend was taken to a zoo in Bangkok. Soon
12:34after, Kuma is taken to the arena by Saladin, and when he sees his opponent on the other side of the
12:40tunnel, he gets scared and refuses to go out. However, the poor animal is pressured by circus
12:45employees, who force him to go outside, and as soon as his opponent appears in front of him,
12:50Sanga attacks him. The tigers then exchange several blows in the arena, but within seconds
12:55of the battle, Sanga realizes that this is none other than his brother, and begins to remember
12:59the day he protected him while he was hiding in the treetops. Thanks to this, the felines stop
13:04attacking each other and begin to play excitedly, happy to have found each other again after so long
13:09apart. Irritated by this, the guards begin to throw several stones at the animals, who try to
13:15dodge them so they won't be hurt. Furious with Kuma's behavior, Saladin begins to attack him
13:20with his stick, but the tiger quickly grabs the coward's arm with his mouth, causing a serious
13:24injury. At the same time, Zerbino enters the arena to shoot at the predator, but Sanga is faster and
13:30jumps on top of the director, destroying part of his body in revenge for everything they did to his
13:35brother. At that moment, people notice that the gates of the large cage have been left open,
13:40and quickly, the tiger brothers run to free themselves. This causes panic among the
13:44visitors, who flee in fear while the tigers escape unharmed from the scene. Outside,
13:50Sanga prepares to leave, but Kuma ends up entering the circus cage, as the poor feline has become
13:55accustomed to making this journey every day throughout his life. Noticing his brother's
13:59behavior, Sanga roars to get his attention, and thanks to this, Kuma realizes that he no longer
14:04belongs to humans. Thanks to this, the tigers leave together towards the forest, where they come
14:10across a kind of bus carrying several animals trapped on its roof. In order to help them,
14:14the pair attack the vehicle together, causing a minor accident and allowing everyone to be freed
14:19while the humans run away in fear. Seizing their chance, the tigers feed on the food that was being
14:24transported, and soon after, they head towards the districts, destroying all the houses and buildings
14:29they find along the way. After that, Sanga and Kuma sneak into a butcher's vehicle so they can feed
14:35even more, and with their revenge complete, they return to the forest. Shortly after, while playing
14:40distractedly, the felines are surprised by several shots and runs so they won't be hit. At dusk,
14:46Aiden arrives at a huge camp set up by soldiers and peasants from the region, and when he meets his
14:51friend, Eugene says they need to find the brothers as soon as possible. Soon after, the man sits down
14:56next to Raoul, who begs him not to eliminate the tigers, since they have done nothing to deserve it.
15:01Aiden then replies that it must be done, otherwise Sanga and Kuma may end up attacking innocent
15:07people around the villages. Feeling sad to hear this, the boy says he knows the tigers would not
15:12hurt anyone, since they will be at home from now on, so they have no reason to attack people.
15:17However, Aiden explains that they have no way of guaranteeing this, and promises that after this
15:22mission, he will never act as a hunter again, and will return home so he can pursue his career as a
15:27writer. The next day, Sanga and Kuma arrive at a cliff, and in the distance they see the temple
15:32where they used to live with their parents. Suddenly, Aiden appears on the scene with all
15:37the other hunters, who start a huge fire around the entire forest. This frightens the tigers,
15:42and as they try to escape, they realize they are surrounded by fire. Trying to find an escape route,
15:47the brothers run desperately through the area, and when they spot their targets, Aiden signals for the
15:52hunters to get ready. However, before they are attacked, Kuma has an idea, and using what he
15:57learned during his life as a circus tiger, he leaps across the fire. That scene terrifies Sanga,
16:03and believing he has just witnessed his brother being eliminated by the fire, he begins to roar
16:08in panic. Quickly, Kuma responds to the tiger's roars and jumps back to him, allowing Sanga to calm
16:13down. Soon after, the brothers set out to make the jump together, finally managing to escape the
16:19hunter's ambush. Witnessing this behavior, Aiden is surprised and runs to find Eugene,
16:24who is desperately searching for his son. Nearby, Raul finds the pair of tigers resting in a shallow
16:29area of a stream, and upon encountering his old friend, Sanga approaches him. Relieved that the
16:35animal is still alive, the boy asks him to move on with his life from now on and never come near
16:40humans again, as they will try to hurt him again. Raul then removes the jeweled collar from his
16:45friend's neck and throws it away, leaving Sanga even more peaceful. At the same time,
16:50Aiden approaches with his gun, but before he can shoot the tiger, he is surprised by Kuma,
16:55who watches him silently. Realizing that there is no longer any reason to continue with all this,
17:00the man lowers his gun, and as soon as the animal approaches, he asks for forgiveness for
17:05everything he has caused in his life. After that, Aiden and Raul watch the brothers leave through the
17:09forest and hear the roar of a third tiger responding to their calls. The pair then head towards the
17:14ancient temple, where they find their mother still alive and waiting for them. With the family
17:19reunited, the tigers return to live in the great jungle, knowing that from now on, they can finally
17:24feel safe in their own home. So what did you think of this movie? Leave it in the comments below.
