More about the film

A Comedian In A Syrian Tragedy Rami Farah, 2019 / eng sub/ 125 min inc. Q&A  This documentary film is a chronicle of a revolution and war, experienced by the famous<br />Syrian actor Fares Helou. Fares’ life changed radically when he joined the people in the<br />streets of Damascus calling for the fall of the Syrian regime. He immediately had to go<br />underground and director Rami Farah joined him in hiding with a camera. When Fares<br />had to flee from Syria to France Rami followed him. However, neither the actor nor the<br />director had a script for the new chapter in their lives: exile. A chapter full of questions,<br />disappointments and alienation, but also of absurdity and cultural confusion that calls for<br />laughter. A Comedian in a Syrian Tragedy is an intimate observation of the psychological<br />violence and the exiled existence experienced by the director and his favorite actor.  Syria, France, Denmark, Norway, Jordan, Qatar 2019 95 min, English subtitle  Other screening: Huset- kbh and OSlo
