Telling Taiwan's Stories Through Film
In a world where almost anyone can make a movie, how do we decide which stories to tell? This week, Trevor chats with Tobie Openshaw, a filmmaker, photographer, and advocate for Taiwan's next generation of visual storytellers. Tobie has a lot to say about his work with Taiwan's indigenous stories, his experiences documenting the Sunflower Movement in 2014, and the hurdles that young filmmakers have to overcome in getting their work into the world.
