Festival

Festival presentation: 

Urban Nomad Film Fest is the oldest and best known underground film festival in Taiwan. It was founded in Taipei in 2002, and the ongoing project is to create a
community-oriented film environment and put an end to the impersonal
‘black box’ movie theater environment where hundreds of people can
watch films without really interacting with each other. We tend to hold festival screenings and events in warehouses, outdoor spaces and converted spaces, rather than traditional film theaters. Peripheral events include concerts, parties, discussion seminars and directors talks.

Urban Nomad's festival content is socially
motivated, growing with and out of digital and grassroots film
movements: underground, alternative, digital, arthouse, DVcam, Flash,
and web-based films. Our program is evenly split between Taiwanese indie shorts (open submission) and international, independent documentaries and features (feel free to contact us).
