Taiwan Film Institute Promotes Classics at International Film Market
What happened
The Taiwan Film and Audiovisual Institute promoted Taiwan's classic cinema at the International Classic Film Market (MIFC) in Lyon. The Taiwan in Focus program featured a 4K restoration of Chen Kun-hou’s “Osmanthus Alley.” TFAI is using the showcase to seek international distribution and programming partners for its restored classics.

Why it matters
The event provides a dedicated platform for Taiwan's film industry at the MIFC, which is the first such national focus for a non-European country. TFAI is actively negotiating with distributors who have previously shown interest in the restored films.
