    • WISDOM OF HAPPINESS is a profound, new cinematic exploration of the innermost world of the Dalai Lama, perfectly attuned to our times. In an intimate heart-to-heart, the world’s greatest ambassador of compassion invites everyone along for a journey to the source of happiness.

      At the pinnacle of nine exceptionally challenging decades in the world spotlight that began at the age of four, the Dalai Lama reflects on balancing millennia-old Tibetan Buddhist traditions with contemporary values of our globalized society that now struggles to overcome violence and war while standing on the brink of environmental collapse. The first Nobel Peace Laureate to be recognized for an early call to preserve our planet shows us that is possible to build a healthier, happier world for all livings being and that the tools necessary to do so are, in fact, already in the palms of our hands.

      Thanks to his expansive mind and disarming wit, the Dalai Lama’s incredibly complex path to a healthy, happy life is finely distilled and inspires us to see how simple it could be to build to a peaceful, prosperous society for all to thrive. While happiness is born in each of us, only the cultivation of unconditional compassion for one another will transform the world.

      In what is likely to be the Dalai Lama’s last appearance in a film, the extraordinary collaboration between Barbara Miller, Philip Delaquis, Manuel Bauer, Oren Moverman and Richard Gere creates a remarkable and timely offering to viewers. The filmmakers weave captivating access with contemplative visuals and never-before-seen archival film to take viewers on a generous meditative climb- from the base of suffering to the peak of human intelligence where the view is simply transformational.

      WISDOM OF HAPPINESS is an unforgettable, meditative experience for the 21st Century that not only unlocks a door to genuine, lasting happiness but reveals that each and every one of Earth’s 8 billion beings holds their very own key to it in the palm of their hand.
