Almost Home: Taiwan - Sneak Preview Screening in Boston

Commemorate the 67th anniversary of the 228 Uprising with a sneak preview screening of ALMOST HOME: TAIWAN!

ALMOST HOME: TAIWAN is a feature documentary that reveals the untold story of Taiwan's struggle for democracy through a family road-trip back home. In the documentary, filmmaker Victoria Linchong returns to Taiwan with her family, searching for long-lost connections and becoming re-acquainted with the unique culture of the island and its wild beauty. Bridging the deeply personal and globally political, Almost Home: Taiwan clarifies the controversies surrounding Taiwan, while introducing viewers to raucous night markets, aboriginal festivals, sacred trees and kissing fish.

This is a fine cut of the film for a limited number of supporters. The screening will be followed by drinks and discussion.
