9月將至，夏天還沒有要走的意思，在華盛頓特區杜邦圓環的這間綠色的門面裡，DC季風即將兩週年了。作為一個活動和思想空間，還有什麼比一場連結海外華語社群的影展更能慶祝這兩週年呢？2026 華語獨立影像展「島嶼之間，聲情浮現」（9月19日–26日），我們將展映十多部涵蓋台灣、香港、中國大陸、哥斯大黎加及華語離散社群的優秀紀錄片與劇情片。
於此同時，書店裡的對話也將在9月繼續。本月，我們聚焦於中國的歷史、地緣政治、文化認同與國際關係。季風邀請到出版人鮑樸重讀文革歷史，資深記者 Orville Schell 揭露中國秘密監獄系統，以及 Audrye Wong 博士解析北京的經濟外交策略；作家 Kit Fan 與譯者 Jeremy Tiang 將從飲食與文學視角聊聊離散與認同。最後，23日晚，美中峰會的前一夜，來自賓州大學 Project 團隊的學者們將帶來他們對於中美關係的解讀。
影像與話語之間，期待與您見面。
This September marks JF Books’ second anniversary in Washington, DC! To celebrate, we are proud to present the 2026 Sinophone Independent Film Festival: Between Islands, Voices Emerge (Sept 19–26). The festival features ten remarkable documentaries and narrative films spanning Taiwan, Hong Kong, mainland China, Costa Rica, and the global diaspora.
Alongside the festival, our September event series explores the deep layers of Chinese history, geopolitical influence, and cultural identity. Join publisher Bao Pu as he re-examines the lasting impact of the Cultural Revolution, veteran journalist Orville Schell as he exposes China’s secret prison labor system, and Dr. Audrye Wong as she demystifies Beijing’s economic statecraft. We also delve into diaspora, food, and belonging with authors Kit Fan and Jeremy Tiang, and wrap up with an analysis of the Trump-Xi summit featuring fellows from the Penn Project.
Even in this unstable world, we look forward to connecting with you through films and conversations.
