The Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in New York cordially invites you to attend the screening of “Black Bear Forest” (2016, 126 min) on Thursday, June 21 at 6:30 pm at TECO.
The film addresses the relationship between humans and the natural environment by taking the audience into the world of an indigenous tribe—the Bunun, and the life of Taiwan’s very own protected animal, the black bear.
The story unfolds in “the realm of bears” that is in the heart of Yushan National Park. It is a fascinating place abundant in wildlife and aboriginal culture. In 1998, a female ecologist started her journey searching for bears and develops a deep friendship with a Bunun hunter in the midst of this wilderness.
Venue: Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in New York, B1 Screening Room (1 East 42nd Street, New York, NY10017)
