The Perfect Family (2011)
This is a movie about redemption and recovery.

The dogma of religious and social politics are, in the end, mere scenery. You could put this independent ditty in any social setting where behavior and expectations are scrutinized. I think a successful 12-stepper in particular would recognize the elementary purity of the message. A pleasant surprise. Drugs and alcohol are represented, by analogy and metaphor, as symptoms rather than as root cause, of the manifestations of character defects and the interactions of personal and societal expectations. Conflict-> resolution. Crucifixion -- by self and circumstances -- resurrection and ascension; virtue as its own reward. No different than Return of the Jedi, in that sense, and a lot less noise.
