DFFF (Dream Flare Film Festival) is organizing a series of Taiwanese film screenings in Seattle.

Interested in how Taiwan became the backbone of the global semiconductor industry? And why does that technological leadership now sit at the center of global political tension?

This February, we are screening three Taiwanese films in Seattle that explore Taiwan’s rise as a semiconductor powerhouse alongside its complex political and security landscape. Following are the screening details. Get tickets by 1/18 for 20% off (Promo Code: DFFF2602)!!

Check out the official poster attached below and follow us on Instagram @_dreamflareff_ for more details!!

The program features three acclaimed films:

Feb 01 – Zero Day Attack (零日攻擊): Zero Day Attack imagines a Taiwan pushed to the edge after a contested presidential election ignites tensions across the Taiwan Strait. As China intensifies military pressure and social unrest deepens, the fragile acting president faces an unthinkable choice — to declare war or surrender the country’s future.

Feb 08 – A Chip Odyssey (造山者－世紀的賭注): A Chip Odyssey traces Taiwan’s extraordinary rise into a global semiconductor powerhouse. The journey began more than half a century ago with bold decisions, quiet builders, and a collective belief that technology could determine a nation’s future.

Feb 15 – Invisible Nation (看不見的國家): Invisible Nation offers unprecedented access to Taiwan’s first female president, Tsai Ing-wen, capturing her leadership at a moment when Taiwan’s democracy, autonomy, and freedom are under constant pressure.

Each screening is followed by a filmmaker Q&A:

Zero Day Attack includes an in-person Q&A with Lin Jin-Chang 林錦昌 (Executive Producer), Cheng Hsin-Mei 鄭心媚 (Showrunner), and Janet Hsieh 謝怡芬 (Cast Member).

A Chip Odyssey and Invisible Nation feature live online director Q&As with Hsiao Chu-Chen 蕭菊貞 and Vanessa Hope.
