In Berlin, Felix Ruckert and Mara Morgen facilitate a group exploring intimacy and boundaries through practices like BDSM, dance, and meditation.
Felix Ruckert, a dancer, and Mara Morgen, an urban sustainability worker, gather a group in Berlin to discuss intimacy and boundaries. Participants engage in practices such as BDSM, dance, and meditation. They share personal experiences and desires, seeking new ways to connect and find happiness. Directed by Paola Calvo, the 92-minute film captures these interactions, reflecting contemporary life in Berlin and the varied approaches to love and fulfillment.
Delicately and yet effectively filmed, Violently Happy lets its questions answer themselves about certain people and certain activities that are usually kept hidden, not for their own sake, but because of those who would condemn such practices.
