Comedy Films: Vol.2

The first day highlights a selection of comedy films from previous editions of the Saudi Film Festival, offering a unique experience that showcases the evolving and diverse styles of comedy in Saudi cinema, both past and present.

Tongue: 4th Edition. Short narrative film. A humble farmer reevaluates his stance on his emotions and material and spiritual heritage when he faces a dilemma that comes from the afterlife.

Wasati: 4th Edition. Short narrative film. The events of the film are inspired by a true story that took place a decade ago at Al Yamamah University in Riyadh, where a group of young Saudi art enthusiasts decided to create a cultural week. Among the agenda was a play they titled "Wasati Without Moderation." During the play, some members of the audience began shouting "music is forbidden" and demanded that the performance be stopped. Moments later, their attacks began.
