Fortunately most of the Q15 are already lacking hair, because these two films would have them pulling their hair out.

Keep Sweet is a documentary about the FLDS, done ten years after Warren Jeffs' conviction and life-in-prison sentence. The NYTimes review was so-so, but it might be of interest to exMos. Streaming on Discovery+

The whole "keep sweet" ethos of the FLDS, basically an admonition to the girls to be virginal and compliant, always struck me as deeply creepy.

From the NYTimes review of "North by Current":

North by Current
NYT Critic's Pick
Directed by Angelo Madsen Minax
Documentary
1h 26m

“How did you become who you became?” asks Angelo Madsen Minax in the opening voice-over to “North by Current.” It’s one of many searching questions in Minax’s restless personal essay film about his family, himself and the ways in which we understand each other. Interlacing his visits to his folks in a Michigan lumber town with his reflections, the filmmaker reckons with the unfathomable loss of his niece, his vibrant sister’s rocky recoveries and being transgender in a traditional, Mormon environment.

Any one of these subjects would be enough for a single film, but part of Minax’s point and method is how these experiences can illuminate one other. About ten years ago, his sister’s toddler daughter, Kalla, was found dead, a tragedy compounded by allegations of child abuse. But instead of a whodunit unraveling some fixed truth, Minax confronts the grief and guilt felt by all involved, even as he works through his own hurt over his parents’ evolving treatment of his identity.

There’s an alchemy to what he accomplishes here, threading everyday scenes of parenting with fugues of home video and classic rock, and a bold double voice-over: his own, and a wise child persona that offers a cosmic perspective. This kind of personal film has often been attempted (even before “Tarnation” made waves), but rarely with this insight. Minax succeeds, even as he includes a deeply conflicting revelation about himself that he could do more to address. Out of the fractured family documentary, what emerges finally is a drama of self-realization.
