Discussion follows with director George Butler
 
Director George Butler (Endurance) trades the Antarctic for the mystical semi-aquatic belt of mangrove forests of India/Bangladesh. Tiger follows Dr. Alan Rabinowitz, a renowned big cat conservation biologist, in a race against time and extinction. Diagnosed with leukemia, Alan makes what may be his last expedition in search of the last wild tigers of the Sundarbans. He explores the relationship between local people who live on the margins of the forest and the fearsome, but threatened predator.  D: George Butler, US, 2015, 90m
