Abstract: 

Taipei, a city built to weaken the strength of the powerful south of Taiwan, has become with the birth of cinema the main object of contradictory representations. Symbol of a perfect colonial city under the Japanese era, Taipei turns into the capital of the Republic of China. As did the Japanese before, the (waisheng) film directors, such as Lee Hsing or Bai Jing-Rui, promoted Taipei both as a very modern urban center and as the center of « true » China. The city thus acquired a metaphorical status of the Chinese power in Taiwan that allowed directors, especially of the hoklo language films to cast a darker image on the city: a sense of loss, both physical and moral.
In the 1980s, New Cinema director Wan Jen also used this subversive representation in his first feature film Super Citizen/超級市民 , but he really conveyed an ambivalent feeling about the city being both a place of loss but also of fascinating attraction. He went on with the next films of his Taipei Trilogy (Super Citizen Ko/超級大國民 and Connected by Fate/超級公民) showing Taipei as both a metaphor of oblivion of the past (both the white terror and the democratic movement).
If in the 2000s, the tension between an official image of Taipei, especially since the construction of the 101 tower and the creation of the Taipei Film Commission, and a not that bright on is still going on, the tone of the films is much lighter. And in fact, the new cinematographic competition is more between Taipei and the rest of Taiwan now.
