Extremely insightful piece on the various ways Bhutanese people approach happiness. Given the country's strong branding around the notion of "happiness" this documentary adds a surprisingly diverse account on the topic.
I partiuclarly loved how some of most important sentences come from "simple" "everyday" Bhutanese people, demonstarting that happiness might root in the spiritual rather than the material values. At the same time through the accounts of the participants, the film reflects on some of the most burning issues of the country (like emigration or alcohol abuse).
I truly recommend this documentary by Dorottya and Arun: food for thought for the open minded.
