About
ÂÜÀòÍøÊÓƵ
During the most 'auspicious' summer of her life, Tiger Ann experiences loss and grief, a first kiss, a glimpse of sophisticated city life and family secrets before ultimately finding her place in the world. This video, starring Juliette Lewis, directed by Adam Arkin and written by Anna Sandor, gracefully presents a richly woven tale based on the book by Kimberly Willis Holt. The video is distributed by Showtime Entertainment Home Video.
"This video stirs the senses while embracing the dignity of a family's love," said Award Committee Chair Helen Foster James. "It gently captures lush Louisiana landscapes and the landscapes of an adolescent soul. The video is truly a deftly crafted adaptation that honors the spirit of an award-winning novel."
