Amber, a happiness agent, travels the Bhutanese Himalayas surveying people's happiness. On his remote mountain journey, he searches for fulfillment.. Watched this at the 2024 Sundance Film Festival.This documentary is a charming, sweet, and interesting exploration of the happiness levels of Bhutanese citizens with great conversations between the main peers, interesting cultural aspects explored and exploring the human self. Filmmakers Arun Bhattarai and Dorottya Zurbo are able to capture the true essence of the life of Bhutanese lifestyles and provide some really fun, bittersweet and touching interviews, discussions and camerawork throughout , struggles, and self were interesting to listen towards. Including singing, dancing, dialogues and all.Being the first Sundance film for this festival, what a good start! I'd recommend it for those who are interested in Bhutanese culture.
