Selfie Dad (2020, Dove Approved All Ages)
Ben Marcus hates his job and feels disconnected from his family. Grieving the loss of his parents and fearful of following in his father’s tragic footsteps, he sets aside his passion for comedy to provide for his family by more practical, albeit unsatisfying means. But after seeing his son watch a UTOO video of a guy playing a video game and discovering that millions of people actually like watching someone else narrate while doing something – and that posting videos can bring in big money if they hit enough views – Ben decides to make his own video, and films himself as he attempts to fix the toilet his wife has been nagging him to tend to for the past several days. It’s a total failure.

My Many Sons (2018, Dove Approved 12+)
The film brings us the inspiring story of Don Meyer (Judge Reinhold), a coach obsessed with his version of success: growing the successful lives of his young players. Narrated by his son Jerry’s character, this well-acted film is a tribute to an unsung American hero who spent over 30 years coaching and molding young men to influence their world. If there ever was a coach who embodied the term “tough love,” it was Meyer, relentlessly striving to elicit the max potential from each and every player. Unyielding in character building, coach Meyer turned each practice into his own kind of unappreciated boot camp. He could spot a slacker a mile away! “You think you’re in the Bahamas?!” the sarge-in-charge would bellow. But he was known for realigning perspectives, and quitters many times returned to be more than they ever dreamed.
