Taiwan has steadily built a distinctive place in Asia's documentary landscape. Backed by a thriving civil society, strong press freedom, and a deeply engaged public culture, the island has cultivated a documentary ecosystem unlike anywhere else in the region.
Presented by CNEX Foundation, this session traces Taiwan's evolution into a growing hub for Asian and Chinese-language documentary, from its theatrical market and festival landscape, to CNEX's two-decade journey through CCDF, Taiwan Matters, and productions such as Island in Between and A Chip Odyssey, and looks ahead to Doc Academy and Taiwan's path toward becoming Asia's documentary catalyst.
