by admin on 12/08/2010

Un documentaire sur le bonheur en anglais.

HAPPY - How It All Began from Wadi Rum Productions on Vimeo.

Qui m’aide à mener l’enquête en francophonie? De l’Afrique au vietnam, du Québec  au Luxembourg, des cajuns aux berrichons: qu’est ce que le bonheur?

Et un autre documentaire sur mon journal.

“Joanna, would you like to interview Jacques Morin?” asked my friend Damien on the phone.

Damien is a documentary director. I saw the DVD about Jacques Salomé (a great psychologist and a best selling author in France) that Damien and Jacques did together so I was eager to meet him.

The meeting was on the set of their new documentary in beautiful Place des Vosges in the heart of Paris.

So here is Jacques Morin’s vision of happiness:

Documentaries on happiness

by Joanna on 13/08/2009

A friend of mine sent me a link to this video:

After investigation (ok! clicking on the link), I found out that this video is part of a project on happiness: Happiness seekers. It’s a documentary on happiness. You can watch a serie of interviews HERE.

I wanted to check if the project was not a religious or political propaganda so I investigated further more (ok! I googled) and found out that there were several documentaries on the subject in the doing. For example, The H-factor explores happiness through the eyes of Kayla, a nine year old girl.
An other project with no date or video has an interesting list of interviewees.

I am looking forward to the release of all those documentaries☺

Happiness at school

If happiness was taught at school, what would the world look like?

My friend Nathalie, author of the blog Origin.all, sent me this video about a japanese teacher.

It starts with a dialogue between the teacher and his pupills on the first day of school:

“What is the most important thing this year?

- To be happy!

- What are we here for?

- To be happy!”

Surprinsingly, there is a lot of crying in the documentary because being happy doesn’t mean avoiding pain. He is teaching the kids and the viewer that bonding, caring, empathy, trust, friendship help go through difficult time. The teacher , Toshiro Kanamori, can also be hard but in the end his goal is to show how precious life is, to guide them to principles that make a happy life.
