Come join us in real life, for a soulful meeting of human spirits to protect the last shattered pieces of humanity and celebrate the bubbles of sanity that are percolating from below the surface of what increasingly feels like a sea of chaos & madness.

Trailer

The Economics of Happiness (2011), by Helena Norberg-Hodge, describes a world moving simultaneously in two opposing directions. On the one hand, government and big business continue to promote globalization and the consolidation of corporate power. At the same time, people around the world are resisting those policies, coming together to re-build more human-scale, ecological economies based on a new paradigm – an economics of localization.

The film has won "Best in Show" at the Cinema Verde Film and Arts Festival, "Best Direction" from EKOFilm 2011 (Czech Republic), "Judges' Choice" and "Audience Choice" at the Auroville International Film Festival (India), an "Award of Merit" from the Accolade Film Festival, and several other awards.
