TGHFF Selections

The Taipei Golden Horse Film Festival (TGHFF), founded in 1962, is the oldest, most prestigious, and most acclaimed film celebration in the Chinese-speaking world, usually held in Taipei each November. Through the Golden Horse Awards competition, the International Film Festival, the Film Project Promotion (FPP), and the Golden Horse Film Academy, it brings cross-cultural audiovisual art and outstanding Sinophone filmmaking to wider audiences, serving as a vital hall of honor where emerging auteurs and established masters gain critical recognition and step onto the global stage.

Since its 1962 inception, the festival has consistently championed open, professional, and inclusive cinematic dialogue, continuously discovering and presenting works of exceptional artistic originality, humanist depth, and aesthetic experimentation. This selection gathers CathayPlay titles that were shortlisted, awarded, or premiered at the festival, tracing the long and profound relationship between this benchmark celebration of Chinese-language cinema and independent filmmakers.
