In the news edit

Taipei Golden Horse Film Festival Executive Committee chief executive Wen Tien-hsiang [zh] attributed the lower number of films submitted to the 57th Golden Horse Awards to fewer submissions of short films, not primarily to a boycott announced by the government of the People's Republic of China in August 2019.[1][2]
