The three film festival events will include post-screening discussion and sharing sessions in addition to the initial film festival. To enhance the cultural richness of the film festival, professors from National Kaohsiung Normal University, associate professors from Wenzao Ursuline University of Languages, and representatives of new immigrants from other nations will be asked to interact and converse based on the film's topic.
