WILD TIGERS I HAVE KNOWN / Cam Archer

USA, 2006, 93 MIN
Cam Archer’s explosive debut feature may be the millennium’s first example of a neo-American underground film, ferocious, passionate, somewhat taboo in its subject, and likely to divide contemporary audiences. A young boy, Logan, a loner, develops a crush on an older one, Rodeo, but must compete with the attention Rodeo gives his girlfriend. After school Logan spends time in suggestive conversations on the phone, taking walks in the forest (where mountain lions roam) and just hanging out with his only friend, who, like Logan, knows that he’s different. Made with a ragged inventiveness on a minuscule budget, Wild Tigers is at once a fearless and original portrait of adolescent foolishness and ache.


Cam Archer Cam Archer is 24 years old and has previously directed short films, including American Fame Pt. 2: Forgetting Jonathan Brandis and bobbycrush. Wild Tigers I Have Known is his feature film debut.
