The feature-length documentary WISDOM OF HAPPINESS is the innermost dive into the thought world of the 14th Tibetan Dalai Lama and a timely testimony to the state of our planet. For the first time, the film captures the Dalai Lama speaking directly to each viewer, in a very intimate connection with each of them. With his open mind and disarming wit, the Nobel Peace Prize winner offers a timely guide to healthy and happy living amidst the challenges of the 21st century. The direct insight and timeless wisdom of one of the world's most famous figures, who has followed events from the throne of Tibetan Buddhism for nearly ninety years, are captured here in conjunction with haunting images of our planet and recently discovered archival footage. The filmmakers, including the Dalai Lama's long-time student, actor and producer Richard Gere, bring an unforgettable meditative experience to the cinema. It unlocks the door to lasting happiness and reveals that each of the eight billion human beings on the planet holds the key to that door in their own hands.
