Happiness
You want. He wants. She wants. But nobody wants what I want.
Directed by Todd Solondz
Produced by Good Machine, Killer Films
A caustic, multi-threaded dark comedy that uses shocking subject matter and satirical detachment to expose the desperation and moral corruption lurking beneath suburban normalcy.
The lives of several individuals intertwine as they go about their lives in their own unique ways, engaging in acts which society as a whole might find disturbing in a desperate search for human connection.
