Trivia
Director Miroslav Slaboshpitsky does not understand sign language and had to have interpreters on set to communicate and make sure that the actors were sticking to the script.
All the actors are deaf and 'The Tribe' makes no use of any vocal language nor even subtitles, only sign language throughout.
'The Tribe' is made up of only 34 shots.
