The movie Minimalism: A Documentary About the Important Things was recognized as the best independent documentary of 2016 In the USA. The documentary follows Millburn and Nicodemus on their introductory tour of minimalist philosophy in the United States, which has been a truly extraordinary success with audiences.
The documentary also presents the opinion of experts who examine the psychological reasons for human behavior which tends to the continuous purchase and accumulation of goods in the conviction of being able to achieve happiness in this way. Then there are the voices of authors and travelers who have decided to live in a minimal way both at home and around the world and here they have the opportunity to tell everyone about their experience.

Among the advice of The Minimalists we find meditation as an effective anti-stress remedy and the suggestion of disconnect from the web for a few hours at least in the evening or on the weekend to do something different, from artistic activities to dinners with friends, to walks in the open air to be reborn in the depths.
