In Columbia Pictures' The Pursuit of Happyness, Chris Gardner (Will Smith) is a bright and talented, but marginalally employed salesman. Strugling to make ends meet, Gardner finds himself and his five-year-old son evicted from their San Francisco apartament with nowhere to go. When Gardner lands an intership at a prestigious stock brokerage firm, he and his son endure many hardships, including living in shelters, in pursuit of a better life for the two of them.

In The Pursuit of Happyness, Chris Gardner(Will Smith) is a family man struggling to make ends meet. Despite his valiant attempts to help keep the family afloat, the mother (Thandie Newton) of his five-year-old son Christopher (Jaden Christopher Syre Smith) is buckling under the constant strain of financial pressure. No longer able to cope, she reluctantly decides to leave.

Chris, now a single father, continues to doggedly pursue a better-paying job using every sales skill he knows. He lands an intership at a prestigious stock brokerage firm, and although there is no salary, he accepts, hopeful he will end the program with a job and a promising future. Without a financial cushion, Chris and his son are soon evicted from their apartament and forced to sleep in shelters, bus stations, bathrooms or wherever they can find refuge for the night.

Despite his troubles, Chris continues to honor his commitment as a loving and caring father, using the affection and trust his son has placed in him as an impetus to overcome the obstacles he faces.
