Complements the scope of and discussions on transnational cinema.
Taiwan New Cinema (first wave, 1982-1989; second wave, 1990 onward) has a unique history regarding film festivals, particularly in the way these films are circulated at major European film festivals. It shares a common formalist concern about cinematic modernism with its Western counterparts, departing from previous modes of filmmaking that were preoccupied with nostalgically romanticizing China's image.
Through utilising in-depth case studies of films by Taiwan-based directors: Tsai Ming-liang, Zhao Deyin, and Hou Hsiao-hsien, Tsai discusses how Taiwan New Cinema represents a struggling configuration of the nation, brought forth by Taiwan's multilayered colonial and postcolonial histories. Taiwan New Cinema at Film Festivals presents the conditions that have led to the production of a national cinema, branding the auteur, and examines shifting representations of cultural identity in the context of globalization.
