Fire by Deepa Mehta
At first glance, you see a happy middle-class family going through the normal paces of everyday life. However, as the layers are slowly peeled back, we find a simmering cauldron of discontent within the family, with almost every family member living a lie.

A tale of immigrant women telling their own stories and how did their situation affect their children, that is a call out to the women who still live in the domestic violence/ abuse cycle to leave. Plus Deepa Mehta was nominated for Oscar for this video.

Beautiful but does not follow a typical cinematic story arc.
