CAAMFest37 is thrilled to bring to the Bay Area, TIGER, a powerful film about a Sikh American boxer who is banned from the boxing commission for practicing his religious beliefs. Based on a true story of Pardeep Singh Nagra (a break-out role for Prem Singh), this inspirational story explores a boxer’s real fight outside of the ring for religious freedom and against racial profiling. This knock-out cast also includes Mickey Rourke as Pardeep’s mentor/coach and Janel Parrish as a bold community lawyer.
Expected Guests in attendance:
Michael Pugliese (Writer) and Rocco Pugliese (Producer) at the Friday, May 10 screening.
Co-presented by 3rd i South Asian Film Festival, Consulate General of Canada, Sikh American Legal Defense & Education Fund (SALDEF)
