Le joli mai

"So, how are you feeling?"

May 1 1963 Not Rated 2h 45m

Candid interviews of ordinary people on the meaning of happiness, an often amorphous and inarticulable notion that evokes more basic and fundamentally egalitarian ideals of self-betterment, prosperity, tolerance, economic opportunity, and freedom.
