"This delightful coming-of-age dramedy provides feel-good entertainment for the entire family without pandering — or sacrificing style or substance. In his feature-helming debut, Aussie theatre director John Sheedy proves a talent to watch. Imagine a cross between John Hughes and Wes Anderson with a soupcon of Pedro Almodovar, and you get an idea of the film’s playful stylisation and witty direction.”

------------------------
Samuel Goldwyn Films will release John Sheedy's feature dramedy H IS FOR HAPPINESS in the U.S. on September 18, 2020.
Set in the colourful Australian coastal town of Albany, H IS FOR HAPPINESS is a classic feel-good film for all ages that will make you laugh, cry, and cheer with delight. Based on the award-winning book My Life as an Alphabet by Barry Jonsberg, it is the genuinely heart-warming and unflinchingly honest story of one twelve-year-old’s determination to bring her family back from the brink and spark happiness in their lives. Using an entirely unique approach, Candice Phee is an unforgettable heroine whose exploits will inspire and delight anyone who has faced the trials of adolescence and the heartbreak of family tragedy.
