Kaohsiung Shorts（2019-2021）

Founded in 2012, the Kaohsiung Shorts grant program aims to establish Kaohsiung as Taiwan’s hub for short film production. The initiative encourages creators to break boundaries and clichés, unleash their creativity, and express local cultural identity through film. To date, the program has supported the production of over 100 short films, making it one of the most prominent and closely followed short film initiatives in Taiwan. This selection features 20 Kaohsiung Shorts completed between 2019 and 2021, spanning narrative, animation, and experimental genres. With a wide range of themes and distinct storytelling styles, these works showcase the rich creative energy of contemporary Taiwanese short filmmaking.
