2 Event Information All screenings are free and open to the public. Bookings are essential. Register Venue The Auditorium CIW Building #188, Fellows Lane The Australian National University All films have English subtitles.

These films range from stereotypical portrayals of Taiwan s aboriginal peoples in the 1960s to popular contemporary works by indigenous directors. This diverse program features documentaries and feature films that engage with cultural, social, ecological and political issues pertinent to Taiwan s past and present.
