Keibu Keioiba, also known as Kabui Keioiba (English: Tiger Head[a]), is a 2009 Manipuri animation feature film, directed by Bhumenjoy Konsam. It is the first Manipuri animation film, based on the Meitei folklore.[1][2][3][4] It was screened in the 11th Mumbai International Film Festival (MIFF) in 2010, under the aegis of the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting.[5][6][7]

The ideology of producing the story of Keibu Keioiba in the animated cinema was for the preservation of the nearly extinct Meitei folktales of Manipur.[1][3]
