Tooth and Nail

 Once a local businessman from the north of Romania, Tiberiu is now a determined activist and a whistleblower. He documents illegal logging in state forests and publishes the evidence on his social media. Two journalists who follow in his footsteps witness the events and plot twists that seem taken out of a hard-hitting thriller. While portraying the protagonist, whose impetuous temperament does not always help the cause, the filmmakers make accusations against predatory forestry, corruption and mafia methods, all rife in their country. Over time, shooting this film becomes equally dangerous to its makers.
