Taiwan Makes Its Mark at Annecy With VR Innovation and Diverse Animation Slate
Taiwan is making a strong showing at this year's Annecy festival and market, with several projects across competition and market sections.
The project’s creative team includes Golden Horse Award winner Chiu Li-wei and Liu Yu-Shu, exploring the tension between technological coldness and human warmth. “Puringau” sees director Liao Tai-yu drawing on Taiwanese Indigenous mythology to craft a haunting tale of nature and the unseen, while Erik Lee’s “Tag” follows a gangster youth’s journey of redemption after mistakenly entering the underworld. Rounding out the lineup is “Wacky Tidy Pals” from Golden Horse-winning animation director Redic Hsu, an adventure where four “cleaners” confront chaotic supernatural events while delivering entertainment and life lessons.
