The Tiger Next Door
a feature documentary by Camilla Calamandrei
edited by Bernadine Colish
"The Tiger Next Door" follows the story of one man named Dennis Hill who has been compulsively collecting and breeding animals for over 30 years-- and has been actively breeding and selling tigers from his backyard in Flat Rock, Indiana for 15 years. When the film begins Hill has 24 tigers, 3 bears, 6 leopards, and a cougar and he faces an inspection by local dept of Natural Resources that may shut him down for good. As Hill fights to hold on to his tigers over the days and months that follow, "The Tiger Next Door" follows him - exploring his motives, his past, and the curious, ethically-murky world he's created in his backyard. At the same time, the film ranges far beyond Hill's animal compound, illuminating the connection between breeders like Hill, and the near-epidemic of wild animal keeping in the United States.
