Saturday (6/12) 6:30pm at the Taiwan National Museum of Fine Art

FEATURE FILM: 《Sharkwater》(14 Film Festival Awards)
SHORT FILM: 《Taiwan's Critically Endanged Pink Dolphins》
OUTDOOR CONCERT: The Farmer's Youth Militia (activist folk)

EVENT DESCRIPTION: We're starting off with folk music at 6:30pm. The Farmer's Youth Militia (well, that's one possible translation of 農村武裝青年) is a central Taiwan folk ensemble of guitar, cello and other players that uses their music to bring attention to a variety of issues in Taiwan, including the plight of the Indo-european humpback dolphin, an endangered species with fewer than 100 animals remaining off Taiwan's West coast. These dolphins are also the subject of the first short film, "Taiwan's Critically Endangered Pink Dolphins" (they really are pink!), and conservationist and legislative aide Chen Bin-heng will also give a short talk on current activist projects. Urban Nomad director David Frazier will also be there to introduce the feature, Sharkwater, a film by Canadian free-diver Rob Stewart that's won multiple awards in EuropeNorthAmerica and will not only entertain you, it will give you the low down on how the Taiwanese mafia is running the international illegal trade in sharks fins.

Time: 6/12 18:30 ~ 21:30
Place: National Taiwan Museum of Fine Art, #2 Wuquan St, Taichung
