The German word "Glück" can be translated as luck, happiness and fortune. But are they synonymous? Do we really need luck to be happy? Is fortune something we find or something we create? Is happiness sufficient by itself? These questions are handled by a group of teenagers of the Sir Karl Popper Middle School in Vienna while attending a theatre workshop. On stage, they get play out their questions about a happy life while navigating their own set of social obstacles, fears and future uncertainties. Mixing documentary and performing arts, "Glückskinder" invites the spectator to inhabit this space between fiction and biography, and witness the potential that art has in building community and giving singular answers to universal questions.
