The Golden Horse Film Festival (金馬 影展 / 金马 影展, jīnmǎ yǐngzhǎn) is an annual film festival in Taiwan. It is considered one of the most important film festivals in the Chinese language region. He is awarded the Golden Horse Awards, which are among the most important Chinese-language travels.

The Golden Horse Awards were created in 1957 by the Taiwanese film industry. In 1962, the organization and award was taken over by the Taiwanese government and combined with the film festival in Taipei. In 1990, the government handed over the organization of the festival and the price selection to non-governmental bodies, which from then on determined the jury members. In 2002, it was no longer just a matter of appointing Taiwanese filmmakers to the jury, but also opening them to internationally renowned figures of the film world.

Since 1980, the festival has been divided into two parts, a pure Chinese-language part, which awards the Golden Horse Awards for the best Chinese-language films, and an international part, where films from all over the world are presented to the Taiwanese audience.
