\u201cThis is a festival of engaged comedy, which in a way combines everything that is recent in both film and theater. Our goal is to make our audience laugh with high-quality and thought-provoking comedies during the month of February. Our partner, Una Film, has provided us with the title \u2018Ozi: Voice of the Forest,\u2019<\/em> a beautifully synchronized animated film for elementary school students from first to fifth grade of the First Primary School in Konjic, which will be shown on Thursday, February 5, at 10 a.m.,\u201d said Mu\u0161inovi\u0107.

The official opening of the \u201cArt Comedy Fest\u201d<\/em> will take place on Saturday, February 7, when the most-watched hit play in the region, \u201cOnce Upon a Time on Brijuni,\u201d<\/em> will be performed. The play features outstanding actors and is inspired by the real historical meeting of two legendary couples\u2014Josip Broz Tito and Jovanka Broz, as well as Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor, emphasized the director of the Konjic Public University.

\u201cFor several months in the past period, we have been communicating with the producer Jovan Todorovski and the artistic and educational production \u2018Joca Art\u2019<\/em> from Belgrade, which, in collaboration with the Bitef Theater, produced the most-watched and significant regional theatrical work, \u2018Once Upon a Time on Brijuni,\u2019<\/em> directed by Kokan Mladenovi\u0107. Well-known faces appear in this theater production, and with the performance of this play, we will officially open the 2nd \u2018Art Comedy Fest\u2019<\/em> on February 7 at 7:30 p.m. What I find important to highlight is that we have really brought the most significant regional theater and film names\u2014those who are present in the most-watched series and theater productions. They are familiar to us because their work has been adapted for screen in the series \u2018Tajkun\u2019<\/em> and the famous film \u2018Toma.\u2019<\/em> The lead actor from the film, Milan Mari\u0107, is part of the ensemble in this play, playing the main role. Also, Sanja Markovi\u0107, who portrayed Toma Zdravkovi\u0107\u2019s wife in \u2018Toma,\u2019<\/em> is part of the cast. There are also two well-known names, a married couple, who are not only an outstanding film and theater duo but also in real life\u2014Branislav Bane Trifunovi\u0107 and Tihana Lazovi\u0107 Trifunovi\u0107. It\u2019s a beautiful story about the meeting of Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor with Josip Broz Tito and Jovanka Broz on Brijuni. There is a little about this real meeting in Burton\u2019s diary entries, which served as the foundation to develop the storyline, with some details imagined, so to speak, to make the narrative more interesting and to give it a contemporary touch,\u201d said Mu\u0161inovi\u0107.

\u201cWe will have the opportunity to see a beautiful theatrical work for children. We are always in need of returning to our home, to the context of the home, its beauty, and the community told in \u2018The Hedgehog\u2019s House\u2019<\/em> by Branko \u0106opi\u0107, which has been shaped in a scientific theatrical way by Dubravka Zrn\u010di\u0107-Kulenovi\u0107 and the entire ensemble of the Youth Theatre Sarajevo. The play will be performed on Monday at 1 p.m. for students from first to sixth grade of the Second Primary School in Konjic, as well as for the kindergartens \u2018Zulejha Begeta\u2019<\/em> and \u2018Happy Kids.\u2019<\/em> In the evening, at 7:30 p.m., we will officially close the festival with a film screening of \u2018The Wedding,\u2019<\/em> an excellent film and currently the most-watched in the region, starring Dragan Bjelogrli\u0107 and Rene Bitorajac,\u201d said Benjamin Mu\u0161inovi\u0107, Director of the Konjic Public University. He invited the people of Konjic to attend the events of this year\u2019s \u201cArt Comedy Fest,\u201d<\/em> which is dedicated to the most famous regional film and theater productions.
