The Pursuit of Happyness

A bad business investment, a bevy of parking tickets and back taxes in addition to rent, childcare and groceries keep him constantly scrambling for cash. Chris thinks his luck is changing when he is accepted into a higly competitive internship program at a brokerage firm. But the internship is unpaid and soon, despite his bet efforts, Chris and his five-year old son, Christopher, find themselves homelss. Chris might spend his days training to invest and make millions, but he and Christopher spend their nights in shelters and public transportation stations.
