 The
highly-anticipated winners of Taipei Grand
Award and Taipei Image Award were announced
yesterday. This year’s Taipei Grand Award
was selected by the 7-member jury, including
Lao Chia-hua, Hu Tai-li, Alan I. Tuan, Chen
Kun-hou, Ann Hui, Dai Jin-hua and Wei Ti,
whereas the Taipei Image Award were chosen
by Lin Jing-jie, Hou chi-jan and Hao Yu-hsiang.
 The
ceremony was simple and full of warmth with
many Taiwanese film workers showing their
care and devotion to Taiwanese films by
attending this yearly ceremony in person.
When shooting pictures along with all the
winners, director Ho Wi-ding and
photographer Jake Pollock accidentally broke
their award statues, adding a little
surprise to the ending of the festival.
The million-dollar Taipei Grand Award goes
to Do Over, the first feature by young
director Cheng Yu-chieh who also starred in
the highly acclaimed Best Narrative Film The
Pain of Others. With the main purpose of
encouraging young artists, this year’s
Taipei Image Award embraced these creative
works, including experimental, drama or
documentary.
