Scenario
Amber, a happiness agent, treks the Himalayas of Bhutan to survey people’s happiness. On his remote mountain trek, he searches for fulfillment.. An extremely insightful piece on the different ways people in Bhutan approach happiness. The country’s strong brand around the concept of "happiness" brings together a surprisingly diverse account of the topic. I will share some very important sentences from "simple" "everyday" Bhutanese people, showing that happiness can be rooted in spiritual rather than material values. At the same time, through the accounts of the participants, the film reflects on some of the country’s pressing issues (such as emigration or alcohol abuse). I highly recommend this documentary by Dorothee and Arun: food for thought for those with an open mind.
