    If you love Tig, PLEASE WATCH. It's an intimate look at an extremely difficult time in her life, not only facing the death of a parent, but the possibility of facing death herself. The line between Tig's signature dry wit comedy (she's sincerely one of the funniest and clever comedians today) and heart breaking authenticity is crossed frequently and smoothly leaving you in tears fromIf you love Tig, PLEASE WATCH.

    An inspiring, emotional and hilarious documentary. Tig's spirit is infectious and her story worth telling. Speaks to the power of comedy through tragedy and living life to the fullest.

    A frank look at the many things that make a life, that change a life, without embroidery or quick-hit editing.

    Viewers need not be familiar with Notaro’s story to enjoy Tig, and Notaro is so likable that it’s hard not to be excited by her success—as the film shows, it’s well-earned.
