Happiness is Hate Therapy(2010)

For the love of hate.

Happiness is Hate Therapy is a documentary that follows Joe as he attends a twice-weekly hate therapy group—not as a clinician or facilitator, but as an observer. The small gathering shares one defining characteristic: a passionate embrace of hatred. Through intimate sessions, the film examines what binds these individuals together and explores the psychology behind their collective worldview. Joe's presence offers a window into a subculture built on shared animosity, raising questions about community, belonging, and the role of negativity in human connection. The documentary presents a candid, unflinching look at people united by what they despise rather than what they love.
