Movies on the Big Screen

The Wisdom Of Happiness

WED Nov 12, 5PM 

2024 | Documentary | Directed by Philip Delaquis, Barbara Miller, Manuel Bauer  | 1h 30m | Not Rated 

Wisdom of Happiness shows us a timeless truth: happiness is still possible, even in the midst of chaos and uncertainty. This powerful message of hope is delivered as a personal audience with one of the greatest living thinkers, Nobel Peace Prize winner Tenzin Gyatso, known to billions around the world as the Dalai Lama. Speaking as a member of our single global community, he shares practical wisdom for finding peace, compassion, and hope in the midst of chaos. With disarming clarity and deep humanity, he invites us to imagine – and help create – a world where compassion is activated as our strongest force for change, and happiness is within reach for everyone. 

“It is a film that, more than a portrait, aims to be a self-help manual for facing the uncertainties and challenges of the 21st century with optimism and hope.” – Sergio F. Pinilla, Cinemanía

“A Once in a lifetime cinematic experience with one of the great thinkers of our time.” – Tenzin Gyatso
