The Taiwan Creative Content Agency (TAICCA) presented five Taiwanese films at the European Film Market (EFM) 2026 on Feb. 14, showcasing a diverse array of works aimed at attracting international co-production partnerships.
The featured titles included “No Money No Honey (一件好事),” “Girl, Boy, The World’s End (我們的世界末日),” “Burning Blossoms (焰花),” “The Lovers Untitled (戀人來日),” and “LOMÁ.” This marked TAICCA’s fifth participation in the EFM pitching sessions.
Directed by Etsen Chen (陳彥廷), “No Money No Honey” explores sexual rights for people with disability and highlights Taiwan’s sexual assistance organization, Hand Angel.
Taking 18 years to complete, “LOMÁ,” directed by Huang Hui-chen (黃惠偵), is a documentary feature about Taiwan Indigenous land rights movements. Director Huang noted that today, the production of documentaries, feature films, and television series can no longer rely solely on the resources of a single country, adding that international co-productions have become the new industry norm.
“Burning Blossoms,” directed by Taiwanese filmmaker Su I-hsuan (蘇奕瑄) and produced by Japanese producers Hitoshi Endo and Nobu Awata, tells the story of a Taiwanese youth who led student movements in Japan during the martial law period.
“Girl, Boy, The World’s End,” directed by Tsao Shih-han (曹仕翰), centers on young people in rural Taiwan, examining the impact of social class on younger generations.
Held annually at the Martin Gropius Bau in Berlin in conjunction with the Berlin International Film Festival (Berlinale), the EFM is a major marketplace for film and television content, bringing together more than 10,000 producers, distributors, and buyers each year.
