In his tremendous grief he accepts help from a stranger named Azzy. This charismatic and well spoken man offers Faust a miracle, the "happy shot", but will this help have unforeseen consequences? Here's Happiness highlights the psychological state of nihilism, hedonism, depression, addiction, the search for meaning and the long lasting effects of childhood trauma on an individual.
