Animation, too, has caught up. The Mitchells vs. The Machines (2021) presents a biological family on the verge of splitting (the parents almost divorce). The film’s climax involves the family literally fighting robots together, but the emotional core is about re-building a family that had already emotionally separated. It’s a metaphor for the "blended repair"—sometimes you have to pretend you are a new family to remember why you were the old one.
