Tigertail
2020In this poignant multi-generational drama, Pin-Jui (Hong-Chi Lee) is 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. Spanning continents and decades, from 1950s Taiwan to present-day New York
City, Tigertail is written and directed by Emmy winner Alan Yang.
