Taiwan to host Bergman film festival from 28 November
MUMBAI: Taiwan will showcase work of renowned Swedish filmmaker Ingmar Bergman from 28 November in Taipei.
In total, 15 Bergman‘s classics will be shown in the festival, including early films never screened in Taiwan.
Taiwan film and culture association director-general and director Hou Hsiao-Hsien said that Begman films conveyed the theme of detachment but in different methods.
The film festival is organised by the Council for Cultural Affairs of the Executive Yuan and sponsored by the TFCA.
Hou said that although not every Bergman’s film would be screened in the festival, the collection of 15 films in total was still a rare opportunity since the film copies had been difficult to retrieve.
