So, 'Happiness' is this intriguing 2024 animated film that throws you into Alice's world, right after she wakes from a rather blissful dream about her husband. There's this underlying tension in her morning routine that really gets you thinking. The animation has this ethereal quality; it feels both whimsical and unsettling at times. Pacing is deliberate, almost methodical, which seems to mirror her internal struggle. It’s about the facade of contentment, and how easily the daily grind can mask deeper issues. You notice the practical effects, too; they add a layer of depth to the visuals. There’s an artful blend of nostalgia and melancholy that makes it stand out in the animation landscape. Definitely worth a watch if you appreciate layered storytelling.
