Please join us for a special screening of Tigers, a film from Academy Award-winning director Danis Tanovic about  a young salesman who takes on a multi-national giant when he discovers that the infant formula he is paid to peddle has deadly consequences.

The screening will be followed by a short panel discussion which includes Mr. Syed Aamir Raza Hussain, the real-life hero on whose life the drama is based. Today, Aamir lives with his family in the Greater Toronto Area where he continues to advocate and raise awareness of the predatory marketing practices of infant formula manufacturers globally.
