B (LACK) MOVIES, the great surprise coming from Taiwan in a true world premiere in its remastered versions and the homage to master TSO-CHI CHANG
Absolutely not to miss the retrospective of Taiwan's B-Movies, influential examples of the change in the country's history when it separated from China and revolutionized the customs, society and the way of seeing the cinema and other artistic creations with their heroines who were opposed to men on an equal footing, and the fabulous staged fights of traditional martial arts.
An absolute highlight for the retrospective of the filmmaker Tso-Chi Chang, controversial filmmaker and screenwriter, master of the realist cinema of Taiwan, awarded at the Berlin, Tokyo, Thessaloniki, Taipei or Singapore festival and selected for the Venice Film Festival. All films are remastered coming to Oporto in collaboration with the Taiwan Film Institute and local producers.
Fantasporto is a production with the ICA (Ministry of Culture), the City Hall of Porto, Unicer and TVCine and Series, as main sponsors.
Cinema Novo, this year celebrating its 40 years of existence, is the organizer of Fantasporto, a cultural cooperative recognized by the Portuguese State as a Private Organ of Public Utility, a Gold Medal of the Oporto City Council since 2005 and the Cultural Merit Medal of the Portuguese government.
