The special effects in Tigers are worth noting—not for their high quality but for the unnerving way they propel the story. The effects are admittedly low budget, but their grittiness is memorable, and López finds ways to make this limitation work to the film’s advantage. What they lack in literal realism is made up for in their surreal and unnerving peculiarity, which adds a child-like strangeness to the apparitions, as if the creatures are coming directly from the imaginations of the characters. Many of the animated effects emerge from the children’s wall drawings, and there’s a recurring theme of drawing reality to make sense of it. When tragedy strikes, Shine creates a charcoal mural depicting not the horrific events but the grief-ridden aftermath. Drawings, and the resulting illusions, become a way of processing.

When our teachers assigned books like Midnight’s Children or One Hundred Years of Solitude I ate them up while my classmates struggled and groaned. I have always loved the dream-like nature of stories that keep the
