A noir novel carried by implacable language mixed with tenderness and violence, Tiger questions the possibility of a refuge, a protective place, and through it that of love and justice.
In Xian, in the near future, Xujin is running a shelter for children uprooted from the streets and prostitution rings, while the shadow of Tiger Bone, a vengeful old shaman, haunts the night. In Russia, Esad, a slightly lost Russian trafficker, falls in love with a young Chinese prostitute, Tiger, and tries to snatch her from her pimp’s hands. When, on the run, he arrives at the refuge accompanied by a young man who has managed to escape from the truck where he was being held prisoner, he forever disrupts the balance of this place and poses a threat.
