Spotlight Taiwan 2026

Spotlight Taiwan returns in 2026 with a special programme featuring three acclaimed documentaries—Seven Ages of A Man, Island of the Winds, and Daughter of Nectar—offering distinctive perspectives on environment, history, artistic heritage, and social memory.

The result of years of dedicated filmmaking, these award-winning works explore ecological change, artistic production under colonial rule, and the lives of Lo-sheng Sanatorium residents. Together, they reveal multiple faces of Taiwan while engaging universal themes of identity, resilience, and human dignity.

Through cinema, Spotlight Taiwan invites audiences to engage with stories rooted in Taiwan's particular histories while resonating with shared human experiences across cultures.
