Happening this weekend only is the 5th annual Vancouver Taiwanese Film Festival, hosted by UBC Literature Etc. Highlighting the latest and greatest in Taiwanese cinema, the festival brings Taiwanese films to Canada that may not otherwise ever be shown in North America. This innovative festival is the first of its kind in Canada to exclusively promote Taiwanese film to a Canadian audience.

This year's festival theme is "Venture through 100 years" and is a celebration of Taiwan's 100 year history. Each of the six films showcased this year will mark a different period in Taiwan's tumultuous history and encapsulate that period's struggles and characteristics.

Canadian viewers will most likely be familiar with the concluding film, Eat Drink Man Woman, directed by Ang Lee (Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, Brokeback Mountain), but all the films have been critically acclaimed in their own right, so you don't want to miss this rare chance to see these films outside of the festival circuit, or your torrent list.
