Business Overview

Universal Film Festival. Universal movies are barrier-free movies with live audio guides and subtitles. By creating a place for people with visual and hearing impairments and other disabilities, elderly people with deteriorating ears and eyes, and, of course, able-bodied people to enjoy movies together, and creating a film festival, we will spread new ways of enjoying movies. In addition to film screenings, we will work with volunteers to create audio guide scenarios in a workshop format, thereby expanding the scope of universal film. In addition, the parties with visual and hearing impairments will receive advice on monitoring the production of audio guides for barrier-free screenings and smooth operations, and will exchange information to build mutual understanding and cooperation.
