people.<\/p>\n<p>Through poetic cinematography and sequences of teachers leading sensitive or boisterous practices to kids from different backgrounds, the film brings awareness to the benefits of mindfulness as a way out of violence and suffering, and as an attainable solution for younger generations.<\/p>\n<p>This full-length feature documentary captures the very real challenges American children face, whether in elite private schools, public schools, on the streets, or in juvenile detention centres. Hearing the frustration of dedicated educators who find ways to teach from the heart, and seeing their optimistic work with youth is an uplifting experience. Interviews with teachers and leaders in the field of mindfulness research and education, including Dr. Dan Siegel and Vinny Ferraro, offer insights into the growing practice of mindfulness in education.<\/p>\n<p>Covering varying approaches to mindfulness by a range of San Francisco Bay Area programs, MAY I BE HAPPY reminds us of children&#8217;s natural capacity for wellbeing, resilience and happiness.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-2 fusion_builder_column_1_3 1_3 fusion-flex-column thisbff-film-sb\" style=\"--awb-padding-top:50px;--awb-padding-left:30px;--awb-padding-top-small:30px;--awb-padding-left-small:0px;--awb-bg-size:cover;--awb-border-color:#e2e2e2;--awb-border-left:1px;--awb-border-style:solid;--awb-width-large:33.333333333333%;--awb-margin-top-large:0px;--awb-spacing-right-large:5.76%;--awb-margin-bottom-large:20px;--awb-spacing-left-large:5.76%;--awb-width-medium:33.333333333333%;--awb-order-medium:0;--awb-spacing-right-medium:5.76%;--awb-spacing-left-medium:5.76%;--awb-width-small:100%;--awb-order-small:0;--awb-spacing-right-small:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-small:1.92%;\" data-scroll-devices=\"small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-column-has-shadow fusion-flex-justify-content-flex-start fusion-content-layout-column\"><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-6\" style=\"--awb-font-size:80%;\"><h3>Mon 25 Sep | 7pm<\/h3>\n<\/div><div ><a class=\"fusion-button button-flat button-large button-default fusion-button-default button-2 fusion-button-span-yes fusion-button-default-type\" style=\"--button_margin-bottom:15px;\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sistic.com.sg\/events\/bff0923g\"><span class=\"fusion-button-text awb-button__text awb-button__text--default\">Buy Tickets<\/span><\/a><\/div><div class=\"fusion-separator fusion-full-width-sep\" style=\"align-self: center;margin-left: auto;margin-right: auto;margin-top:15px;width:100%;\"><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-7\"><p><strong>Single Cinema Ticket: $15<\/strong><br \/>\n<small><em>Prices exclude SISTIC booking fees<\/em><\/small><\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-image-element \" style=\"--awb-margin-top:20px;--awb-margin-bottom:10px;--awb-caption-title-font-family:var(--h2_typography-font-family);--awb-caption-title-font-weight:var(--h2_typography-font-weight);--awb-caption-title-font-style:var(--h2_typography-font-style);--awb-caption-title-size:var(--h2_typography-font-size);--awb-caption-title-transform:var(--h2_typography-text-transform);--awb-caption-title-line-height:var(--h2_typography-line-height);--awb-caption-title-letter-spacing:var(--h2_typography-letter-spacing);\"><span class=\" fusion-imageframe imageframe-none imageframe-1 hover-type-none\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"305\" height=\"90\" alt=\"MAY I BE HAPPY -

Her teacher friend of a class of 1st graders was delighted to welcome her in her class but the Director of the school was opposed.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I realised that we had to inform people; explain what the practice is about and answer any questions they may have. It inspired me to make this film. I asked Eric if he wanted to make it happen, he agreed and we jumped together in the project without asking any questions.<\/p>\n<p>As the United States have always been a leader in innovation and since I had trained there, we wanted to show the initiatives that are already in place and working so that everyone can form their own opinion.<\/p>\n<p>The intention was not to highlight statistics or scientific studies but that we can attend live moments and collect testimonials from teachers and young people.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>They organised filming from France and Eric left alone with his camera to tour schools and institutions in the San Francisco Bay Area for five weeks. He realised editing and postproduction in France from Sp\u00e9rac\u00e8des, a small village in the South of France where they live.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-fullwidth fullwidth-box fusion-builder-row-4 fusion-flex-container nonhundred-percent-fullwidth non-hundred-percent-height-scrolling\" style=\"--awb-border-radius-top-left:0px;--awb-border-radius-top-right:0px;--awb-border-radius-bottom-right:0px;--awb-border-radius-bottom-left:0px;--awb-flex-wrap:wrap;\" ><div class=\"fusion-builder-row fusion-row fusion-flex-align-items-flex-start fusion-flex-content-wrap\" style=\"max-width:1248px;margin-left: calc(-4% \/ 2 );margin-right: calc(-4% \/ 2 );\"><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-5 fusion_builder_column_1_1 1_1 fusion-flex-column\" style=\"--awb-bg-size:cover;--awb-width-large:100%;--awb-margin-top-large:0px;--awb-spacing-right-large:1.92%;--awb-margin-bottom-large:20px;--awb-spacing-left-large:1.92%;--awb-width-medium:100%;--awb-order-medium:0;--awb-spacing-right-medium:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-medium:1.92%;--awb-width-small:100%;--awb-order-small:0;--awb-spacing-right-small:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-small:1.92%;\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-column-has-shadow fusion-flex-justify-content-flex-start fusion-content-layout-column\"><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-11\"><h4>PRINT SOURCE<\/h4>\n<p>H\u00e9l\u00e8ne Walter<br \/>\nContact <a href=\"mailto:helene@tamaproduction.fr\">helene@tamaproduction.fr<\/a> &#8211; @mayibehappyfilm<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-fullwidth fullwidth-box fusion-builder-row-5 fusion-flex-container thisbff-dgrey-box nonhundred-percent-fullwidth non-hundred-percent-height-scrolling\" style=\"--awb-border-radius-top-left:0px;--awb-border-radius-top-right:0px;--awb-border-radius-bottom-right:0px;--awb-border-radius-bottom-left:0px;--awb-padding-top:40px;--awb-padding-bottom:20px;--awb-margin-top:40px;--awb-background-color:#434551;--awb-flex-wrap:wrap;\" ><div class=\"fusion-builder-row fusion-row fusion-flex-align-items-flex-start fusion-flex-content-wrap\" style=\"max-width:1248px;margin-left: calc(-4% \/ 2 );margin-right: calc(-4% \/ 2 );\"><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-6 fusion_builder_column_3_5 3_5 fusion-flex-column\" style=\"--awb-bg-size:cover;--awb-width-large:60%;--awb-margin-top-large:0px;--awb-spacing-right-large:3.2%;--awb-margin-bottom-large:20px;--awb-spacing-left-large:3.2%;--awb-width-medium:60%;--awb-order-medium:0;--awb-spacing-right-medium:3.2%;--awb-spacing-left-medium:3.2%;--awb-width-small:100%;--awb-order-small:0;--awb-spacing-right-small:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-small:1.92%;\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-column-has-shadow fusion-flex-justify-content-center fusion-content-layout-column\"><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-12\"><h4>YOU MIGHT ALSO BE INTERESTED IN<\/h4>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-7 fusion_builder_column_2_5 2_5 fusion-flex-column fusion-no-small-visibility\" style=\"--awb-bg-size:cover;--awb-width-large:40%;--awb-margin-top-large:0px;--awb-spacing-right-large:4.8%;--awb-margin-bottom-large:20px;--awb-spacing-left-large:4.8%;--awb-width-medium:40%;--awb-order-medium:0;--awb-spacing-right-medium:4.8%;--awb-spacing-left-medium:4.8%;--awb-width-small:100%;--awb-order-small:0;--awb-spacing-right-small:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-small:1.92%;\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-column-has-shadow fusion-flex-justify-content-center fusion-content-layout-column\"><div style=\"text-align:right;\"><a class=\"fusion-button button-flat button-small button-custom fusion-button-default button-3 fusion-button-default-span fusion-button-default-type\" style=\"--button_accent_color:#ffffff;--button_accent_hover_color:var(--awb-color6);--button_border_hover_color:hsla(var(--awb-color6-h),var(--awb-color6-s),calc(var(--awb-color6-l) -
