The 57th Golden Horse Awards (Chinese: 第57屆金馬獎) was held on November 21, 2020 at the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall in Taipei, Taiwan.

In the news[edit]

Taipei Golden Horse Film Festival Executive Committee chief executive Wen Tien-hsiang [zh] attributed the lower number of films submitted to the 57th Golden Horse Awards to fewer submissions of short films, not primarily to a boycott announced by the government of the People's Republic of China in August 2019.[1][2]
