The 56th Golden Horse Awards Ceremony will be held in Taipei, China on November 23, 2019. According to the National Film Administration, the participation of mainland films and personnel in the 2019 Taipei Golden Horse Film Festival has been suspended.

According to official information from the Golden Horse Film Festival, a total of 148 feature films were registered for the 56th Golden Horse Awards in 2019. This number is the lowest in the past four years compared with 228 films in 2018, 202 films in 2017, and 181 films in 2016.

has currently been confirmed by relevant personnel from the film and crew. " Forever" (director: Wang Xiaoshuai), which won the Best Actor and Best Actress at this year's Berlin Film Festival, and " The Party at Southern Station " (director: Diao Yinan), which was shortlisted for the main competition unit of the Cannes Film Festival, have not registered for the Golden Horse Awards.

The Taiwan Film Golden Horse Awards was founded in 1962. It is a film award held in Taiwan, China. It is also known as the "three major Chinese film awards" together with the China Film Golden Rooster Award and the Hong Kong Film Awards.

2018 Golden Horse Awards controversy

At the 2018 Golden Horse Awards ceremony, the young female director Fu Yu (Taiwan, China), who won the "Best Documentary" award, openly interjected "Taiwan independence" remarks during her acceptance speech. Cheng Li-jun, director of Taiwan's cultural department, not only supported Fu Yu that night, but also publicly made political remarks on social media, putting the Golden Horse in shame.

Obviously, the Taiwan authorities not only allowed the Golden Horse Awards to become a political stage, but also played a role in adding fuel to the fire.

Chairman of the Golden Horse Awards Executive Committee Ang Lee told the media afterwards that he hopes to discuss art based on art and does not want any political events or other things to interfere. Please give filmmakers a little respect.

This probably represents the aspirations of most filmmakers on both sides of the Taiwan Strait.
