Happiness Takes No Account of Time is an intriguing exploration of chance encounters. The film meanders through a subway setting, where two strangers find themselves bound by a moment of coincidence. The girl, initially skeptical, feels both a sense of curiosity and disdain towards the boy who oddly shares her cookies. It's this tension that permeates the film, inviting the audience to ponder the unpredictability of human connection and perception. The pacing is deliberate, allowing the emotional weight to build, creating a subtle, contemplative atmosphere. Performances feel genuine, encapsulating the awkwardness and complexity of first impressions. What stands out is the exploration of 'what ifs'—the idea that our choices shape our realities yet often hinge on fleeting moments of happenstance.
