For the 7th year in a row, the San Diego Asian Film Festival presents the Taiwan Film Showcase, the largest annual presentation of Taiwanese cinema outside of Asia. Every year, the Showcase highlights the diversity of perspectives, languages, stories, and genres by feature-length and short filmmakers in Taiwan today. And for the first time, we are adding virtual reality films to the program.
In addition to our Taiwan Film Showcase, this year, SDAFF will feature virtual reality in a program titled "Virtual Reality From Taiwan," featuring short narrative experiences that poke fun at tradition and reveal history in 360 degrees.
The Taiwan Film showcase is sponsored by the UCSD Chuan Lyu Foundation for Taiwan Studies, the UCSD Taiwan Studies Lecture Series, the Taiwan Academy in Los Angeles, and the Taiwan Ministry of Culture. All films are presented at the UCSD Price Center Theater and are free for UCSD students, faculty, and staff.
