I've just now watched "When Do We Eat?" on Netflix and really enjoyed it. Here's the synopsis from the Netflix website:

Strict patriarch Ira Stuckman (Michael Lerner) experiences religious ecstasy -- literally -- after being slipped a hallucinogenic drug during the family's Passover Seder meal. With a little psychedelic inspiration, the once-gruff and critical Ira embraces the spirit of the holiday, vowing to guide his contentious clan toward forgiveness and harmony. Jack Klugman co-stars in director Salvador Litvak's chemically laced domestic comedy.

There are a number of elements in this movie that correspond to some of the quandaries that we've raised on this email list -- What constitutes kosher? What about same-sex couples and blended families? What about interfaith relationships? What about Christmas (or, in this case, Christmas ornaments)?

Has anyone else on this list seen this movie?

:)
