a small good thing screening photoHow can we live in a better way?

While the answer is different for every individual, there are common threads amongst “happy people.” Academy Award®-winning filmmaker Pamela Tanner Boll explores these questions in the new documentary film, A Small Good Thing, screening from October 28 – November 6, 2015 at the Museum of Fine Arts Boston .

The feature-length film tells the stories of people moving away from the philosophy that “more is better.” It centers on a more holistic concept of well-being − one based on a close connection to themselves, the natural world, and to the greater good.

A Small Good Thing explores how the American Dream has reached its end and how for most of us, greater material wealth and upward mobility are no longer possible. To find out what is taking its place, this feature documentary follows six people in one community who have recast their lives so they can live with a sense of meaning—more connected to themselves, the natural world, and the greater good.
