Mad Tiger (NR)

synopsis

This film follows bandmates Yellow and Red, who have been best friends and business partners for fifteen years as the primary creative forces behind Peelander-Z. Based in New York City and described as a "Japanese Action Comic Punk Band," Peelander-Z combines performance-art and audience participation in their shows, which push the boundaries of madcap acrobatic stage antics. Seeking his own personal fulfillment, Red announces that he will do one final tour with Peelander-Z before quitting the band. Yellow tries his best to keep it together, while dealing with emotions of betrayal. Channeling universal stories of friendship, this film builds to an unexpectedly moving crescendo.
