SNF Nostos 2026 from the Stavros Niarchos Foundation (SNF)
Wisdom of Happiness
Documentary screening
SNF Nostos from the Stavros Niarchos Foundation (SNF) presents the documentary "The Wisdom of Happiness", on Monday, June 22, 2026, at 19:00, in Stavros Niarchos Hall of the Greek National Opera (GNO), at the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Cultural Center (SNFCC). Admission is free with event-specific registration.
In this "intimate" 2024 documentary, the now-90-year-old Dalai Lama addresses viewers directly to share, with wisdom and wit, simple lessons for a more peaceful world, one in which cultivating compassion for one another allows us all to thrive.
"Wisdom of Happiness" is a very special film that we hope will have a profound effect on how we think and feel about ourselves and others with whom we share this beautiful planet," says Richard Gere, a producer on the project, which the filmmakers describe as "what is likely to be the Dalai Lama's last appearance in a film."
Incorporating striking views of nature and rare archival footage, the film offers both concrete, practical steps anyone can take to live more consciously and a deeply human and personal look at the person enthroned as the head of Tibetan Buddhists at the age of five.
