Though married to the good-natured, beautiful Thérèse (Claire Drouot), young husband and father François (Jean-Claude Drouot) finds himself falling unquestioningly into an affair with an attractive postal worker. One of Agnès Varda’s most provocative films, Le bonheur examines, with a deceptively cheery palette and the spirited strains of Mozart, the ideas of fidelity and happiness in a modern, self-centered world.

MASTERS: AGNÈS VARDA
Agnès Varda was the only female director of the French New Wave, called both the movement’s mother and its grandmother. Join Calgary Cinematheque for the third film in our retrospective series of Agnès Varda films during January And February. Using the skills she honed early in her career as a photographer, Varda created some of the most nuanced, thought-provoking films of the past fifty years.
