Youth. Migrant workers. Elderly. Neurodiverse people. Ex-offenders. Underprivileged Families. The pandemic has drastically impacted many vulnerable and marginalised groups. How can we support these groups, and what does happiness look like in different perspectives?
The theme of 2021’s festival is “An Inclusive Journey Towards Happiness”, which shifts the focus of the discussions to vulnerable and marginalized groups.
We explore the issues faced by these groups through six international films, each paired with a local short film and followed by a dialogue with community leaders working on the ground.
The pandemic has drastically impacted many of these groups, both economically and mentally. The dialogues will focus on how we as a society can support these groups, and also to understand what happiness means in other perspectives.
Happiness Initiative is a social enterprise that translates the science of happiness and well-being into actions people can take. Hence, helping people live a more fulfilling life and take a preventive approach towards mental health conditions.
