Toujours heureux jamais content

Filmed over the course of May in the streets of Lyon, the film gathers the personal stories of residents sharing their doubts, struggles, and hopes. Organized into thematic chapters—screens and social media, feminism, ecology, politics, media, religion, happiness—it paints a portrait of a city and a moment in time, through voices that are often opposing, always unique. In a society saturated by media and marked by divisions, this documentary takes the time to give a voice to people who sometimes disagree, opening up a necessary space for listening—a space that, unfortunately, is becoming increasingly rare.
