I recently watched some documentaries during a Netflix binge on the idea of happiness. One of them was Happy (2011) by director Roko Belic and the other was I Am (2011) by director Tom Shadyac.

The contrast of seeing a large family in Louisiana, USA, find their happiness in having very little material goods and seeing a young, suited up adult on the streets of New York answering the question “What will make you feel successful and happy?” with “Right now? Money” made me wonder what people in Gibraltar consider to be happiness, and how they think they achieve it.
