Netflix is releasing Tigertail on April 10. A poignant multi-generational drama written and directed by Emmy winner Alan Yang, the cast of Tigertail features Tzi Ma, Christine Ko, Fiona Fu, Joan Chen, Kunjue Li, James Saito, Hayden Szeto, Voda Wong, Cindera Che, Kuei-Mei Yang, Lee Hong-chi, Raymond Ma, Cindy Im, Yo-Hsing Fang.
Check out the official trailer below.
Tigertail tells the story of Pin-Jui (Lee Hong-chi), a free-spirited yet impoverished young Taiwanese factory worker who makes the difficult decision to leave his homeland — and the woman he loves — behind in order to seek better opportunities in America.
But years of monotonous work and an arranged marriage devoid of love or compassion leave an older Pin-Jui (Tzi Ma) a shadow of his former self. Unable to sympathize with his daughter Angela (Christine Ko) and at risk of living out his retirement in solitude, Pin-Jui must reconnect with his past in order to finally build the life he once dreamed of having. The film spans continents and decades, from 1950s Taiwan to present-day New York City.
