The moment when light dims in a movie theater - all the way until pitch black - is the beginning of wonders. As images and stories light up the silver screen, they recall the ripples and colors of two great rivers in our lives – the Charles River of Boston, and the Tamsui River of Taipei. Across an ocean, Taiwan and the US are connected through the ever-flowing tides. And just like a river, the rolling reels of cinema film can connect us over the spatial divide of continents, and the temporal divide of generations.
Films can make waves that spread and resonate across the hearts of viewers. As they do so, each echo and flash of image is a reflection of the many faces of life. An ancient text in our heritage once said: “Looking into a mirror allows you to see your appearance; looking into history allows you to know the world’s rises and falls; and looking into people allows you to understand conflicts and values.” Looking into movies, we can hope to see into the lives of ourselves and others, and gain wisdom and empathy.
The 6th annual Taiwan Film Festival of Boston (TFFB) extends our sincere invitation to join us on this journey of resonant ripples and reflections.
