Spotlight on
Taiwanese Cinema

From groundbreaking debuts to internationally lauded masterpieces, this year’s VTWFF curation invites you to journey through the rich tapestry of Taiwan’s stories, landscapes, and voices. Each film in the lineup was hand-selected to illuminate a different facet of the island’s vibrant culture—whether it’s the pulse of its bustling cities, the quiet poetry of its rural horizons, or the bold creativity of its new wave auteurs. Get ready to laugh, reflect, and be moved as we celebrate the filmmakers who are redefining what Taiwanese cinema can be.
