Tiger!
Overview
Tiger! is a compelling story about a wrestling legend who turned 60 in 2004. For most people this would be seen as a good time to retire on a 100 acre property. Tiger chooses instead to take on 36 year old Japanese Judo champion Naoya Ogawa. ‘Tiger!' is a riveting story with a nail-biting climax.
