About This Movie
The Tiger Leaps and Kills, But It Will Die... It Will Die... is a haunting documentary by Santiago Álvarez that serves as a raw tribute to Victor Jara. The film’s tone is somber, reflecting the weight of loss in its portrayal of a musician who became a symbol of resistance. You can feel the tension of the times, especially with the backdrop of the military coup in Chile. Álvarez employs a mix of archival footage and stark imagery, and it’s a striking commentary on art and activism. The pacing is deliberate, almost meditative, which allows the viewer to absorb the gravity of Jara's story. There's an unvarnished honesty to the documentary that sets it apart, capturing a moment in history that demands remembrance.
