The happyness diaries<\/span><\/i> is a film that listens to the heart of a growing generation. In a school in the Gr\u00e8cia Salentina, a group of students, armed with video cameras, document their daily lives, dreams, fears, and most intimate reflections. Amid moments of joy, wonder, and hidden anxieties, a collective portrait emerges of the lives and emotions of those still discovering the world. With sincerity and delicacy, the film explores happiness, love, death, courage, and the meaning of life, offering an authentic and valuable glimpse into a fragile and evolving world. <\/span><\/p>
