We are delighted to announce that the feature film Happy Hours has been selected for the Orizzonti category at the 81st edition of the 2024 La Biennale di Venezia festival. The film’s remarkable visuals were captured through the collaboration of the cinematographers Frida Marzouk and Tim Kuhn. Directed by Scandar Copti, produced by Tessalit Productions, Intramovies, Fresco Films, and Red Balloon Film, Happy Hours explores how a minor accident in Jerusalem sets off a chain reaction, revealing lies and unspoken truths that divide a complex patriarchal society. The main roles are portrayed by Manar Shehab, Wafaa Aoun, Toufic Danial, and Meirav Memoresky.
