Melbourne Taiwan Film Festival

The Melbourne Taiwan Film Festival returns for its fifth year with free screenings. This year's festival centres around the powerful theme of 'Transition'.

Transition is perhaps most visible in Taiwan’s historical and political journey from authoritarianism to democracy. Yet, for those living through it, change often feels quiet and subtle – triggered by a short conversation, a photograph, or a fleeting moment with family.

Featuring four remarkable and deeply moving personal stories, these films bring Taiwan’s past and present into a shared conversation - Family Matters, Deep Quiet Room, The Photo from 1977, and A Foggy Tale.
