Can Forgiveness Heal-Tiger Within And Forgiveness The Future Director Rafal Zielinski Knows It Can

What does it take to actually forgive? Can we honestly say that we forgive and forget or can we ever truly put these two words into action.  Director, Rafal Zielinski has captured the art of forgiveness and given it a means of expression.  Being raised by a father who worked as a design engineer for the Ford Foundation of Eastern Europe could not have been easy but Rafal found ways to cope with such a childhood by hiding behind an 8mm.  His having lived in Calcutta, India which he calls the world’s worst slums and having had to spread his wings at such a young age, Rafal found out first hand that forgiveness is a very real thing.  It makes its home in the hollows of a person’s heart.  It incubates and spreads, like a viral infection of the best kind that should be hoisted up in clinics for immediate injection.

Zielinksi’s project, Tiger Within uses strong emotional boundaries that lie untouched when he marries the lives of a Holocaust survivor, Samuel and a sixteen year old rebellion named, Kasey.  Samuel has survived losing a family including two daughters.  Things begin to develop as Samuel attempts to encourage Kasey to stop with the rebellion and appreciate the good things in life.  He becomes a trustworthy father figure for Kasey and she becomes the daughter he once had.  The exchange of wisdom partnered with youthful rebellion is an intellectual temptation worthy of participation.   Using the music scoring of Canadian artist, Grimes, who by the way appeared recently on BBC’s Jools Holland Show and by taking advantage of the descriptive words of Princess Diaries screenwriter, Gina Wendkos , Rafal passionately executes impromptu questions about The Tiger Within film project and his forgiveness message, by merging images of various people, including a Buddhist Monk and spiritual clergymen, he met during his global travels.  The Tiger Within which certainly addresses this understated word called, forgiveness, got a lot more attention, when Rafal and his team decided to make the, Forgiveness The Future project a side bar.  “We never really knew that the project on forgiveness would take off, and the two projects seem to work so beautifully together, who could resist the chance to create a multi-level visual and cultural experience through film”, quotes the director.  The complexity of making a film like this, a small film with a big heart, is something that Zielinski knows all too well.  Seeking funding from online crowd funding sources like, Kickstarter gives this Director the right to cry for peace, love and of course, Forgiveness.  Tiger Within is an independent dramatic feature film with an uplifting theme of forgiveness, written by acclaimed screenwriter, Gina Wendkos (“Princess Diaries”), to be directed by award-winning independent filmmaker Rafal Zielinski (“FUN”) with a projected start date of Spring of 2013.    film art planet, *illuminate, *inspire, *entertain…this has been another Ankh Entertainment, Stones In The Color Of Rare Productions.  Forgiveness is a rare stone that when once discovered should never be taken for granted.http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/rafal-zielinski/2082243180?token=f18aec2b FORGIVENESS: THE FUTURE
