Why watch this film?
Ethnic and religious discrimination is certainly a prevalent problem nowadays - and this film illustrates that through a real case. Pardeep Nagra was a heavyweight boxing champion banned for fighting against the exclusion caused by the system itself. 'Tiger' shows a great story of determination, but also the darker aspects of Western culture in sports and entertainment. The movie features Mickey Rourke from 'The Wrestler'.
