The Film

Invisible Nation is an intimate view of the presidency of Tsai Ing-wen, Taiwan’s first female president as she fights for the future of her country’s democracy at a time when freedom around the world is under threat from authoritarianism. SYNOPSIS

With unprecedented access to Taiwan’s sitting head of state, director Vanessa Hope investigates the election and tenure of Tsai Ing-wen, the first female president of Taiwan. Thorough, incisive and bristling with tension, Invisible Nation is a living account of Tsai’s tightrope walk as she balances the hopes and dreams of her nation between the colossal geopolitical forces of the U.S. and China. Hope’s observational style captures Tsai at work in her country’s vibrant democracy at home, while seeking full international recognition of Taiwan’s right to exist. At a time when Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has demonstrated the ever-present threat of authoritarian aggression, Invisible Nation brings punctual focus to the struggle of Taiwan as it fights for autonomy and freedom from fear.

Reviews

“The strength of the movie is in its access (to Tsai and others) and the force of its narrative. Watching it, one is driven to anger and, hopefully, to action. Do not look away, for doing so will truly allow Taiwan to vanish, turning Invisible Nation’s tit”
“Advocates for Taiwan ought to be pleased with Invisible Nation‘s degree of focus, nuance, and relevancy.”
“Compelling… Taiwan’s troubled past and uncertain future come sharply into focus in this timely and valuable film.”
