The Ministry of Foreign Affairs' (MOFA) "Finding Taiwan #FindingTAIWAN" global film submission event has launched its 2.0 version this year. Director-General of MOFA's Department of International Information Services, Chang Hsiu-chen, stated today (16th) that the theme for this event is "Where We Connect," encouraging creators to present stories of Taiwan's interconnectedness with the world. Additionally, a "Kuang Hua Special Award" has been established, welcoming creators to use the database of "Taiwan Panorama Magazine," which is celebrating its 50th anniversary, as inspiration for reinterpretation and re-creation. #Reported by reporter Wang Chao-kun# Last year, the MOFA upgraded the "Taiwan Wave" short film competition to the "Finding Taiwan" global video submission event. The MOFA stated that the first "Finding Taiwan" attracted over 280 entries from more than 20 countries. Through the perspectives and lenses of creators from different cultural backgrounds, many touching stories of Taiwan were seen, successfully showcasing Taiwan's diverse and vibrant image to the international community. This year's "#FindingTAIWAN 2.0" global film submission competition, organized by the MOFA, uses "Connection" as its theme, hoping to continue combining civilian creativity to introduce Taiwan to the world from more diverse viewpoints. Director-General Chang Hsiu-chen of MOFA's Department of International Information Services said: "(Original sound) We hope to encourage creators to start from different aspects such as democracy, innovation, culture, technology, and people-to-people exchanges, and to present stories of Taiwan's interconnectedness with the world from their own observations and creative perspectives, allowing the international community to understand Taiwan from more diverse angles." The MOFA invites domestic and international visual creators and those who care about Taiwan to actively participate. The event details will be officially announced before the end of June, with submissions expected in July and August, and an awards ceremony in late September. Detailed information regarding work specifications, application methods, authorization regulations, and other submission guidelines will be promptly announced by the MOFA on the event's dedicated website.
