NEWS: Four Taiwanese Productions Fly the Flag at Far East Film Festival1 min read
Reading Time: < 1 minute
There were four Taiwan films among the 77 selected from across Asia for the 21st Far East Film Festival (FEFF) in Udine, Italy – an impressive achievement considering the domestic film industry usually produces less than 50 films a year.
“More Than Blue” (比悲傷更悲傷的故事), “The Scoundrels” (狂徒), and “Ten Years Taiwan” (十年台灣) all received their European premieres at FEFF and were warmly received by local audiences. A fourth film, “The Devil Fish” (人面魚：紅衣小女孩外傳), fittingly had its international premiere at midnight, and lured several hundred committed horror movie fans into the darkness of the Teatro Nuovo.
There will always be questions for films that are produced with a domestic audience in mind when it comes to how they will play to a Western or international audience.
