Directed by Hsiao Chu-Chen, A Chip Odyssey tells the story of Taiwan’s rise in the semiconductor industry. Featuring interviews with over 80 key figures who witnessed and shaped the development of the industry — from the first generation of engineers and female factory workers, to policymakers and technology veterans, and today’s young engineers facing new crossroads. Despite its small size, Taiwan now plays a significant role in powering modern technology. More than a history of industry, the film reveals the human determination and collective effort behind Taiwan’s technological success.
