The Taiwanese Canadian Cultural Festival partners with the Taiwan Film & Audiovisual Institute to present a series of online screenings from July 2nd to 6th, featuring three award-winning films, "Ohong Village"," Home Sick” and "Missing Johnny" to promote Taiwanese movies.
From "Ohong Village," depicting a fishing village battling land subsidence and poverty, to the ethnic conflicts on a fishing vessel in "Home Sick," these ocean and island-focused stories offer rich material for Taiwanese cinema. They blend history with fiction, spanning past and present. Like the tide's ebb and flow, they portray resilient lives swept by the sea, reconnecting and intertwining again.
