Unicode in cgi-script with apache2

Hi,

I've got a little script:

#!/usr/bin/env python3
print("Content-Type: text/html")
print("Cache-Control: no-cache, must-revalidate")    # HTTP/1.1
print("Expires: Sat, 26 Jul 1997 05:00:00 GMT") # Date in the past
print("")
f = open("/var/www/cgi-data/index.html", "r")
for line in f:
     print(line,end='')

If I run the script in the terminal, it nicely prints the webpage 
'index.html'.

If access the script through a webbrowser, apache gives an error:
UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xc3 in position 
1791: ordinal not in range(128)

I've done a hole afternoon of reading on fora and blogs, I don't have a 
solution.

Can anyone help me?

Greetings,

Dominique.
