Cagliari, 21st November 2007 –  Today, on the occasion of the opening of Monte-Carlo Film Festival “de la Comédie” seventh edition, conceived and directed by Ezio Greggio, Tiscali, the independent communication company, announces its partnership as main sponsor of the event.

The Monte-Carlo Film Festival “de la Comédie”, has been conceived for increasing the value of comedy within an international environment, emphasizing its cultural and social aspects. In fact this genre, often underestimated, represents the evolution of habits and attitudes of modern society more than any other, interpreting them frankly and without filters. 

The presence of Tiscali as main sponsor confirms the company’s attention to contents, even considering the important existent converging process, on the basis of which the boundaries of different communication systems are being redefined.

Important names of cinema will be hosting at the event in which Tiscali is partner: Ettore Scola will be the chairman of the Jury, with the great French comedy director,  Claude Zidi, Giulio Scarpati and actress and singers Serena Autieri and Ophélie Winter. Nine films are in the pipeline. The unpublished “Si c’était lui…” by Anne-Marie Etienne with Carole Bouquet will open the event.
