Thursday, August 4, 2022, 7:00 PM - Tiger Within:        

A young punk who thinks she knows it all. An old man who knows he doesn’t. They strike up a conversation. It becomes life changing. A deepening knowledge occurs as they walk the streets of LA. He is a Holocaust survivor; she a massage-parlor worker on the run and a holocaust denier, though he doesn’t hold any of that against her. Newcomer 14-year old Margot Josefsohn plays angry but stunningly naïve Casey, living from hand to mouth on the streets  of LA fending off the frightening advances of men, having nowhere to go. She trusts no one.  Samuel, played by the sublime (multiple Emmy Award-winning actor Ed Asner) trusts only a few. The two form an unexpected friendship, which gradually blossoms into a new family unit – him providing her the support and guidance that was lacking in her life, and her offering him the glimpse  of the fatherhood that was torn from him many years prior. A redemptive story about the power of forgiveness and unconditional love to transform lives and overcome ignorance, fear and hate…  Gerri Miller Jewish Journal
