The Sea Was Never Blue

The main character, Josh, is facing financial problems and can't secure gainful employment coupled with psychological problems from his service in the armed forces. At the beginning he confronts his psychologist about the bill needed for counseling services, and I think this will hit home to a lot of people who struggled with mental health, especially the irony that when finances are a major cause of anxiety, they industry slaps you with a heavy bill to get it treated.

I like also that it treats the people who like Trump sympathetically without endorsing or condoning their views. Instead the movie uses the old arguments and attacks you hear between different political groups to highlight just how tired and shallow they can be sometimes. It doesn't try to deconstruct the characters' reasons for their views but rather focuses on how the political system divides unlikely friends.

It's kind of like Breakfast Club for poor people. If you've ever had to work the gig economy, you'll find the movie relatable.
