Happiness

  • Log in or register to post comments

In a quiet suburb of New Jersey, the lives of three sisters intertwine in a dark and often unsettling portrait of the pursuit of happiness. The eldest, Helen, is a successful woman who seems to have it all: a cozy home and a promising career, but she struggles with her own dissatisfaction and the pressure to meet social expectations. Her sister Patty, trapped in a monotonous marriage, feels lonelier than ever and seeks dangerous escapades in a city where no one seems to notice her frustration. The youngest, Joy, is a lost soul, caught in toxic relationships that leave her with deep scars.

In parallel, a lonely man, a stranger in his own world, becomes the shadow that looms over the sisters, revealing dark secrets and unconfessable truths that shake the lives of everyone around them. As their stories intertwine, the search for happiness turns into a struggle for redemption. Each character faces their internal demons, exploring how seemingly normal lives can conceal deep traumas and unfulfilled desires.

With a raw and often unsettling approach, this narrative challenges conventional notions of happiness and morality, prompting the audience to reflect on what it truly means to be content. As the complexity of their relationships is revealed, it becomes clear that the paths to happiness can be misleading and, at times, tortuous.
