Description
Happiness is part of the "Human Frames" art film collection, which explores different psychological states such as desire, madness, fanaticism, fear, anger, isolation, melancholy, Mono no aware, and impermanence. The "Happiness" program presents eleven contemporary works from Asia and Europe, capturing moments of happiness through color, laughter, dance, movement, and that melancholic form of joy contained in memories of the past.
