This annual Festival not only presents vigorous Taiwanese film industry, but also bridges us to know deeper root of Taiwanese society, culture and value. Australian friends can find how Taiwan live out the democracy and safeguard freedom of speech and arts from our movies. He committed to continue supporting Festival and look forward to having more cultural exchanges.
