Petit Bonheur

Directed by Clorinda Warny
Canada, 1972 (animation, 8 minutes, colour)
Also known as "Happiness Is"

Film Description:
"For a young mother happiness can be an hour's stroll in the park with her sleeping infant—but happiness is short-lived when the baby begins to cry and the passers-by pause with freely proffered advice. Made of animated paper cut-outs, this film without words is a spoof about the self-styled child experts who are so caught up with their own views of what's best for a child that they fail to see the infant's real problem."
-- National Film Board of Canada (source)
