sponsored by TAICCA_Official | Taiwan’s film industry has continued to thrive in 2021 bringing nine features to the Busan International Film Festival
Despite being shrouded in the shadow of the global COVID-19 pandemic, Taiwan’s film industry has continued to thrive in 2021. This is thanks to precautions being taken on a local level, enabling a diverse array of new works to blossom.
“Days Before the Millennium,” the debut feature of Chang Teng-Yuan, is an ambitious historical epic that shows the struggles of newly arrived Vietnamese migrants in Taiwan. And Taiwanese auteur Chung Mong-Hong’s pandemic-set tale “The Falls” will be introduced to Asian audiences at BIFF after screening at Venice and Toronto earlier this year.
“Crossing’s End,” directed by activist and reform advocate Shih Yu-Lun, takes a deep dive into the controversial Houfeng Bridge case, in which two Taiwanese men were wrongfully convicted of murder. Shih spent years following the accused and their families, offering multiple viewpoints and dialectical perspectives. Both defendants were acquitted of all charges in 2019, making the film’s premiere especially meaningful and timely.
