These movies were subtitled with Chinese and being played in cinemas. From another point of view, there are not many Taiwan movies which are translated into German subtitle. Since 2008, there was a Revival of Taiwan Films. Taiwan movies have become popular and people now pay more attention on Taiwan’s movie industry. In order to encourage more Taiwan movies to be participated in international film festivals, Taiwan government provides incentive and marketing strategies. Giving an overview of Taiwan film market, a large share of film market are American and European movies. There are also lots of studies related to English-Chinese subtitle.
