Abstract

What can you do if you think you are not as happy as happy could be, and you can spend some money? One option: visit the experts around the world, collect their advice, and make a film about your experiences. That is what Line Hatland did. Her film is a summary of happiness research, nicely visualized with a good sense of humour. The film is a pleasant way to make people familiar with happiness research, and watching it together can be a good start for a discussion about happiness as such.
