HAPPINESS FILM FESTIVAL
Launched this year to promote discussion about and awareness of happiness, the line-up includes The Work (2017, NC16, 87 minutes) which won the Best Documentary Feature at the Sheffield Doc/Fest 2017. In Folsom State Prison in California, inmates take a four-day group therapy session in which these hard men reveal, often while showing great emotional distress, the trauma they have carried with them since childhood.
