Amanda Nell Eu’s feature debut is a lively coming-of-age story that mixes the mundane and the supernatural with ease.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Jun 14, 2024

Eu smartly weaves that universality together with local myths and legends, and the result is a little eerie and unsettling, a film about dark things we’re afraid to speak about.

The message is not always clear, but it’s an entertaining ride.

From the exuberant credits and opening sequence through to the end, “Tiger Stripes” is the work of a confident new talent whose next work will be eagerly awaited.

The drama of girlhood is familiar cinematic territory, and though it might garner a smaller audience than Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret or You Are So Not Invited to My Bat Mitzvah, Tiger Stripes is a welcome addition to the pack.

[A] well-observed, fiercely female-centred coming-of-age drama.
