On Being Hated

Have you ever encountered someone who, simply put, hates you – but for no apparent reason or certainly not one that you can divine yourself?  It’s often quite a shock and the person at the receiving end of it can often run a gamut of emotions as they try to logic out why their new enemy feels such hatred towards them.

Directed, animated and designed by Luiz Stockler and written and narrated by Alain de Botton, On Being Hated shows us that learning to cope about this kind of hatred, without panic, belongs at the core of wisdom.
