Netflix has released the first trailer for Tigertail, the emotional multi-generational feature-directing debut from Emmy-winner Alan Yang. The drama stars Hong-Chi Lee and Tzi Ma as the same Taiwanese factory worker at different points in his life - before, during, and after his decision to seek a new life in America, where a joyless arranged marriage leaves him with a daughter he can't connect to.

This looks like a gorgeous emotional roller coaster, the type of deeply-felt story we knew Yang could crush after Master of None but on a much more personal scale. The filmmaker offered up his own sentiments on twitter over what impact he hopes Tigertail can have in these weird, trying times.

Here is the official synopsis for Tigertail: In this poignant multi-generational drama, Pin-Jui (Hong-Chi Lee) is a free-spirited yet impoverished young Taiwanese factory worker, who makes the difficult decision to leave his homeland - and the woman he loves - behind in order to seek better opportunities in America. But years of monotonous work and an arranged marriage devoid of love or compassion leave an older Pin-Jui (Tzi Ma) a shadow of his former self. Unable to sympathize with his daughter Angela (Christine Ko) and at risk of living out his retirement in solitude, Pin-Jui must reconnect with his past in order to finally build the life he once dreamed of having. Spanning continents and decades, from 1950s Taiwan to present-day New York City.



Tigertail is written and directed by Emmy winner Alan Yang and features a supporting cast including Joan Chen, Yo-Hsing Fang, Kuei-Mei Yang, Kunjue Li, and Fiona Fu.
