Comment from Jury President PANG Ho-Cheung

It was not an easy task to choose the winners, knowing the amount of hardwork and dedication required in making each film.

Ms. Charlene Choi won Special Mention for her performance in “Sara”. Ten years on screen, she took up this challenging role and transformed herself from a pretty face to a true actress.

Director Mez Tharatorn showed remarkable talent with “I Fine.. Thank You.. Love You”. Audiences often have difficulty understanding comedy produced in other countries, but this film allowed viewers to understand and enjoy the humor, while deftly avoiding exaggeration.

“Meeting Dr. Sun” is the story of boys planning to steal a statue. A closer look reveals that it is also about the daily life of citizens and the current political situation in Taiwan. The director succeeded in bringing out the best of the young actors with simple dialogues and delicate expression of emotions.
