Liberty Times: Displaying Taiwanese identity in art
2010/07/31 11:17:01 |
"Formosa Betrayed, " the first Hollywood movie about Taiwan's white terror period, will be shown in Taiwan next week. The film allows the international community and the Taiwanese people to understand the difficult process of Taiwan's democratization.
Similarly, the Taiwanese film "Tears" tells the story of police torture during the authoritarian past. Tsai Chen-nan's performance in the film won him the Best Actor award at the 8th Rome Asian Film Festival last week.
Due to the long-term "de-Taiwanized" education and media influence in the past, many people in Taiwan have a distorted perception about the history, geography and language of their own country. Under these circumstances, it is very important to allow ordinary people to learn about Taiwan through popular art. (Editorial abstract -- July 31, 2010) (By Y.F. Low) ENDITEM/bc
