Boiler Room X FINAL Taipei 2025 Directed by Xiao-Wei Lu
A film by Lu Xiao Wei for Boiler Room—a documentary that delves into the story of FINAL, a groundbreaking club in Taipei that has redefined the city’s underground music scene. From dimly lit staircases to the dreamlike glow of neon, FINAL is more than just a venue—it’s a cultural movement. This is where boundaries are pushed, genres are reimagined, and self-expression takes center stage. Through the voices of its founders, DJs, and the wider creative community, the film explores how FINAL became a sanctuary for experimentation, a home for those seeking freedom beyond the mainstream. Shot entirely in Taipei, the film captures the raw energy of the city: its chaotic streets, intimate club spaces, and the relentless spirit of a scene that thrives against the odds. It’s a story of resilience, identity, and the power of music to bring people together, even in the face of challenges like the pandemic.
