The Happy Film (2016)
A painfully beautiful film
11 May 2017 - 2 out of 2 users found this review helpful.
The Happy Film is painfully beautiful. Design legend Stefan Sagmeister has a distinct history of offering himself up for public consumption, and his first documentary is exceptional on the merits of artistic stimulation and voyeuristic thrill alone.
But the most extraordinary part of the story lies in watching him struggle with whether happiness can be constructed, and if he can find the heart of something in its dissected parts.
Sagmeister fans will appreciate how truly naked and starkly present he is, and those who struggle with emotions, chemicals, love, or life will see pieces of themselves everywhere in this film.
I loved it. It truly must be seen.
