The film follows Amber Kumar Gurung and Guna Raj Kuikel, two Bhutanese bureaucrats, in their travels through the small Himalayan kingdom as census workers, measuring people’s happiness levels. They work for the Center for Gross National Happiness, a government institution which is tasked with collecting data on the citizens‘ happiness. This data is then used to inform the constitutionally-mandated goal of increasing national happiness.[5]
Along the way we meet Bhutan’s everyday people, such as a transgender bar singer, a wealthy farmer and his three wives, a teenage girl who worries about her mother’s alcoholism, or a recent widower who finds solace in religion. Through them we get a glimpse into the Bhutanese society and their views on happiness in face of adversity. We also explore Amber’s dreams and ambitions, primarily among them the dream of finding love.

»Why haven’t I seen this before?« In the first scene of Copa 71, American international footballer Brandi Chastain stares at her tablet in amazement. She is watching footage of the first ever international women’s football tournament in Mexico City in 1971, Copa 71. Why is it that one of the best-attended women’s sporting events of all time has been forgotten?
In 1970, the first European tournament took place in Italy; SC 07 Bad Neuenahr represented Germany. A year later, international teams from Argentina, England, France, Denmark and Mexico competed against each other in Mexico. This purely commercial event, which was not backed by FIFA, proved a huge success, attracting crowds of 100,000 to the stadiums. Yet what could have been the launch pad for women’s football worldwide failed to attract any support. Another ten years would pass before the next international tournament. In Taipei, Taiwan, SSG 09 Bergisch Gladbach became world champions in 1981. This also paved the way for the formation of an official women’s national team in Germany in 1982. One thing to note though: women’s football was officially banned until 1970. Perhaps not surprising then that another decade passed before the first FIFA Women’s World Cup was held, in China. The final saw Brandi Chastain score the winning penalty to help the US take the trophy home.
The film presents archive footage of the tournament, plus interviews with the players of the time – impressive personalities who provide vivid accounts of the preparations and the tournament itself. A threatened walk-out by the Mexican team over pay at one point put the tournament in jeopardy, as did the tense atmosphere between the teams, still tangible when watching the film in the cinema.

When parents can no longer fulfil their duty of care, the children’s world often falls apart. Nothing stays as it was. Suddenly it is no longer mum or dad who are in charge but the youth welfare system. Daniel Abma followed a youth housing group in a rural area over several years, showing professional educators who want to give five boys between the ages of seven and fourteen what they need most urgently, day by day: security, orientation, a home. The documentary focus is not on the children but on those who take the parents’ place. They sometimes remind us of Don Quixote tilting at the windmills, for there is a diffusion of responsibility between school, youth welfare services, and absent mothers and fathers. Words fail when adults do not keep appointments, when those in charge capitulate in the face of racist bullying and propose some “time out” – for the bullied boy – in a psychiatric facility. It would be easy to denounce these mechanisms, but that is not the point Daniel Abma wants to make. His observation, both emphatic and reserved, looks questioningly into the gaps in the system – with those who are in danger of falling through and those who try to fill them with affection. He makes us suspect that the answer is not to close all the system’s gaps. It is people who are there for other people and take responsibility. Luc-Carolin Ziemann
