The Fundamentals of Caring is a 2016 American comedy-drama film starring Paul Rudd, Selena Gomez, and Craig Roberts. Paul, a writer, retires after a personal tragedy and becomes a disabled teen’s caregiver. When the two embark on an impromptu road trip, their ability to cope is tested as they start to understand the importance of hope and friendship.
This movie was chosen to help us explore one’s responsibilities to self, others, and The One.
It is through relationships with others that we are given the golden opportunities to look within and find our own areas of holding on to tight, and severing connections when they don’t meet our expectations. Between those two extremes lies the experience of love for what IS, in each moment.
Done with humor and compassion this movie provides themes of identity, forgiveness, desire, and the tenacious compulsion to control the events in our lives.
This movie is available on Netflix.
