Telling what happiness is
around the world sometimes
means to grasp it among the
furthest and hardest stories.
Through seven of those, in-
volving women of our time in
Afghanistan, Mauritania, Paki-
stan, Cambodia, Tajikistan, Ma-
lawi and Vanuatu, “Notes on
Happiness” tells how, despite
violence, war, illness and pover-
ty, little big dreams come true.
Because happiness is a mystery
and grows even where, at first
sight, there is no hope.

Award-winning photographer
Pierpaolo Mittica and Russian
activist Nadezhda Kutepova,
take us through a journey into
hell on earth: the region of
Chelyabinsk, South-East Russia.
Used as the Soviet “dumping
ground”, the region shows a
concentration of polluting ele-
ments that is by far exceeding
that measured in Chernobyl
and Fukushima.
