Manufacturing Happiness is a thought-provoking documentary that delves into our obsession with happiness in modern society. Directed by Jean-Christophe Ribot, it presents a detailed exploration of how various industries—books, apps, coaching—fuel this quest for joy. The tone is contemplative, almost somber at times, making you really think about the impact of marketing happiness. The pacing is steady, allowing for deep reflection on the themes of consumerism and self-fulfillment. Ribot skillfully interweaves interviews and visual montages, creating an atmosphere that feels both familiar and unsettling. It’s distinct in how it challenges the notion of happiness as a commodity, provoking questions about authenticity and social expectations.
