Taiwan’s feature films have long attracted global interest for their storylines, topics, and creativity
Taiwan’s feature films have long attracted global interest for their storylines, topics, and creativity because Taiwan has been able to give film producers incredible creative freedom. Diverse genres have emerged from the laissez-faire approach that Taiwan has adopted to feature films. In recent years, stories and topics featured in Taiwan’s films have, more often than not, depicted our country’s existing social landscape. This has seeped through to pitches selected for our "Project to Screen: Film" segment as well. The feature films in this segment include dramas of diverse themes and styles as well as documentaries that present the current social reality and the production team’s reflections. Though drama films and documentaries are widely different genres, both are equally charming. We hope to open up more possibilities for feature film projects in this pitching session.
