The third day of SSFF & ASIA Osaka 2015 starts with “Future Film Day in Taiwan” Program. The founder of the festival, Wei-lun Lin, who himself directs as well as produces and coordinates films, founded the festival with the aim of introducing Taiwanese short films to the world. Same as Japan, the number of audience going to movie theaters has been decreasing, therefore the festival screens films not only in theaters but also outdoor locations.\u3000He also sends cheers to filmmakers who hesitate to submit their films to the international film festivals – \u201cTaiwanese short films have been received awards at film festivals around the globe, so I also want them to challenge.\u201d<\/p>\n
