Happiness alone doesn’t make one incredibly wise, either 2026

Directed by Michael Chauvistré

A personal look at the village community and rural commune in Klein Hundorf (Northwest Mecklenburg). The film combines contemporary observations with archival footage of East German communes from 30 years ago. It is about love, partnerships, breakups, living together on the same farm, and the question of how much closeness and shared vision a person can handle.
