Monty Python’s Life of Brian

Join us for 1979’s Monty Python’s Life of Brian, an irreverent and clever satire that uses the Python troupe’s signature comedic style to explore the absurdities of dogma, blind faith, and the human condition.

Set in tumultuous first-century Judea, the film follows Brian Cohen, a naïve and ordinary man who, through a series of hilariously unfortunate misunderstandings, is mistaken for the Messiah. Amid fervent prophets, Roman oppressors with a flair for mispronunciation, and fanatical followers who take everything literally, Brian’s life spirals into chaos.

Blending slapstick, insightful social commentary, and quirky surrealism, Life of Brian shows the value of questioning assumptions, thinking independently, and finding humour in life’s challenges—all accompanied by a wink, a nudge, and a cheeky grin, along with an iconic whistling tune to conclude the journey.
