Taipei Cultural Center collaborates with the National Taiwan Museum of Fine Arts to introduce and share outstanding documentaries by touring the winner and nominated films of Taiwanese directors at Harvard University, Rutgers University, University of Pennsylvania, Duke University and Taiwan Academy. The goal is to display the diversity of Taiwan to the U.S. audience, encourage exchange of ideals, as well as initiate critical discussions about the issues raised in the films. A series of post-screening discussions with film directors have also been scheduled.
The 2012 Taiwan Documentary Film Screening Tour will feature a selection of films from 2008 and 2010’s Taiwan International Documentary Festival (TIDF), including Let The Wind Carry Me (2009) by Chiang Hsiu-chiung and Kwan Pun-leung; They are flying (2008) by Huang Chia-Chun; An Exposure of Affected hospital (2007) by Chu Hsien-Che; and Somewhere over the Cloud (2007) by Hsiao Mei-Ling.
