Kantjil en de Tijger

A grandmother with one last wish. Her brave granddaughter Indra. And the clever little chevrotain (mouse-deer) Kantjil, small but with a mighty punch. Travel with Indra and Kantjil as they search for the past: epic, vulnerable, thrilling, confronting and with a generous dose of Indo humour. A production in collaboration with Oorkaan and Studio Figur, featuring Bodil de la Parra, Bo Bojoh, Isabelle Houdtzagers, Susannah El Mecky, Jan van der Plas and Eddie B. Wahr. 
Indra’s grandmother Billy is ill. In her small living room the entire family waits to say goodbye. But then it turns out Grandma has one final wish that turns everything upside down. Young Indra rushes to her side, and before she knows it, she tumbles into a hidden history. Indra meets sidekick Kantjil, a magical Javanese mouse-deer with a surprisingly strong left hook. Together, they piece together the fragments of the past. Can you be too old to give the past a place? Or too young for the history of your own family? Script: Paulien Geerlings, Melissa Knollenburg
