Project Happiness Film
The Project Happiness Documentary film focuses on four teens from Santa Cruz, California, who are introduced to peers in Nigeria and India. Each faces personal obstacles to happiness: loss, alienation, and the everyday challenges of being a teenager passing into adulthood. At the end of the year together, the three groups converge in Dharamsala, India, for a rare, private interview with the XIV Dalai Lama – an event that rocks their expectations, brings more questions than answers, and marks a new chapter in their lives Starring: George Lucas, Richard Gere, Richard Davidson, XIV Dalai Lama Run time: 60 minutes
