The 7th Taiwan Film Festival in Australia returns to Sydney’s Event Cinemas George Street, with 12 sessions and 20 Australian premieres. The festival has a wide range of events, from stunning arthouse cinema for all cinephiles to international co-production initiatives that take cinema to the next level, including stories from Malaysia and Japan. There are also eye-opening documentaries about epic stories and migrations, as well as blockbuster comedy that ensure everyone has a good time.
For the first time, they have expanded the programming team and dedicated a section to Taiwanese Indigenous works. This is a fantastic opportunity to showcase Taiwanese Indigenous cultures and highlight their values and voices, which are crucial to Taiwanese identity.
The festival also features additional events, including a Pitching Competition to encourage emerging filmmakers to pursue adapted screenplays and international co-productions, Taiwanese Bookshelves to discuss the behind-the-scenes of the festival’s opening night and the award-winning film Old Fox, and the iconic Short Film Competition.
