Tiger Stripes is full of symbolism about accepting who you are. You don't have to hide yourself if you differ from the rest. A beautiful message. An entertaining film set in the dazzlingly beautiful jungle of Malaysia. Unfortunately, in strict Malaysia, scenes in the film were heavily censored because the girls often remove their headscarves and menstrual blood can be seen. Director Amanda Nell Eu was (rightly) 'not amused' about this censorship. Fortunately, we can enjoy the uncensored version here.

In the opening scene, 11-year-old Zaffan [Zafreen Zairizal] already shows some of her rebellious nature in the presence of her best friends Farah [Deena Ezral] and Mariam [Piqa]. From the moment of her first period, her behavior starts to become increasingly erratic and this is to the detriment of her friendships. When Zaffan also starts to change physically, the 'virus' spreads to other girls at the school. But then help appears in the form of exorcist (or is it charlatan?) Dr. Rahim [Shaheizy Sam]. The basic idea is not new and the story is on the thin side, but Zairizal makes a great impression in the lead role and Sam is a hoot as the mediagenic, opportunistic 'doctor'. Amusing and certainly not scary, so why this is labeled as a horror film here and there is unclear to me.
