A gang of children try to survive cartel violence and the ghosts created by the drug war in this award-winning dark fairy tale horror.
"We are in a Mexican city turned into a ghost town by the drug-war. Estrella is 11, and when her mother vanishes, she makes a wish: she wants her mother to come back. And mum does return — from the dead. Terrified, Estrella escapes and joins a rag-tag gang of other children orphaned by the violence, all escaping their own past. But she learns that in a city ruled by death, you can’t simply leave the ghosts behind; they walk with you wherever you go." (ScreamFest)

"A scary yet sometimes fanciful story of a little girl...like a dirtied-up Guillermo del Toro flick."

FilmInk"Thematically underdeveloped yet pleasingly creepy, "Tigers Are Not Afraid" balances its mild terrors with appealing moments of childish creativity."
