* Tuesday 7 July 2026 at the VIU Hotel at 7.30 pm
**Divine Comedy (Komedi-e Elâhi)**
*Directed by Ali Asgari*
*IRAN – 2025 – COMEDY, DRAMA – in the original language with French subtitles – 98 minutes*
*Starring Bahram Ark, Sadaf Asgari, Hossein Soleimani, and others.*
Bahram (Bahram Ark) is an arthouse filmmaker in Tehran. However, his latest film has been rejected by the local cultural authorities. Bahram is therefore determined to screen his work. Accompanied by his partner and producer Sadaf (Sadaf Asgari), perched on his Vespa, he criss-crosses the city’s streets in search of a cinema, even if it means resorting to alternative plans.
Following \*Chronicles of Tehran\* (2023), this comedy once again raises the question of the right to freedom of expression and artistic integrity in the face of a repressive institution; and serves as a reminder of how cinema and humour, when combined, act as an act of resistance. “Winner of the 2026 Grand Prix at the Fribourg International Film Festival (FIFF), \*Divine Comedy\* emerges where you least expect it: at the intersection of burlesque and repression, as if laughter had suddenly decided to turn the tables on censorship.” \*La Liberté\*, Olivier Wyser. “What also sets Divine Comedy apart – and earned it the award – is its irony and a touch of Woody Allen.” RTS Un, 7.30 pm, Thierry Jobin, Artistic Director of FIFF
