Why in Database: The turtle only appears in the texts/dialogues in this movie. The very beginning of the film is a quote about the life of a turtle and a tiger (implicitly, a tiger has an interesting life, a turtle life is mayby longer, but boring). Later, the main character loosely repeats the same text, once in an extended form and once, addressing a policeman, in the very short form.

“IT’S BETTER TO LIVE A YEAR AS A TIGER
THAN TWENTY YEARS AS A TURTLE”

– And I think that it’s better to live one year as a tiger than 20 years as a turtle. I don’t wanna live like a turtle. I wanna be a tiger.

You’re a turtle. I’m a tiger.
