Danis Tanović’s *Tigers* emphasizes intellectual depth and the questioning of traditional heroism rather than broad demographic representation. The film explores the psychological breakdown of its characters during wartime, delving into the gray areas of human behavior. While the film excels in its sophisticated narrative structure and critique of institutional stability, it remains narrow in its social portrayal. The focus is almost entirely on the masculine experience of combat and moral ambiguity. Ultimately, the film serves as a study in the subversion of moral certainties rather than a study in demographic inclusivity.
