History

Historical Context

In 1996, Taiwan's film industry struggled, releasing only 12 domestic films amid competition from Hong Kong cinema, which had thrived since the 1960s. The Taiwan Creative Content Agency (TAICCA) now promotes Taiwanese films like "Tutti" at international markets, paralleling Japan's cinema resurgence. Both nations aim to enhance their global presence and cultural identity through increased collaborations and co-productions.
