The Pittsburgh Taiwanese Association will present 《Invisible Nation》 Movie Screening & Panel Discussion【看不見的國家】電影放映會及座談會 on October 26.
With unprecedented access to Taiwan’s sitting head of state, director Vanessa Hope investigates the election and tenure of Tsai Ing-wen, the first female president of Taiwan. Thorough, incisive and bristling with tension, Invisible Nation is a living account of Tsai’s tightrope walk as she balances the hopes and dreams of her nation between the colossal geopolitical forces of the U.S. and China. Hope’s restrained observational style captures Tsai at work in her country’s vibrant democracy at home, while seeking full international recognition of Taiwan’s right to exist. （Promotion materials provided by Theorem Media）More information on the panelists is available at the event site. The event runs from 1:30 to 4:00 pm in the McConomy Auditorium in the Jared L. Cohon University Center on the Carnegie Mellon University campus (map), and tickets are available online; there are special rates for students and children.
