Another Round-netflix movie-long & spoilers
I heard about this show this am on NPR, I googled and here is the plot from wiki
Teachers Martin, Tommy, Peter and Nikolaj are colleagues and friends at a gymnasium in Copenhagen. All four struggle with unmotivated students and feel that their lives have become boring and stale. At a dinner celebrating Nikolaj’s fortieth birthday, the group begins to discuss psychiatrist Finn Skårderud, who has theorized that having a blood alcohol content of 0.050 makes you more creative and relaxed. While the group dismisses the theory, Martin, who is depressed due to troubles in his marriage, is inspired and starts to drink at work. The rest of the group eventually decide to join in, considering the ordeal an experiment to test Skårderud’s theory. They agree to a set of rules: their BAC should never be above 0.05 and that they should not drink after 8:00pm.
Within a short period of time, all four members of the group find both their work and private lives more enjoyable. Martin, in particular, is delighted as he finally manages to reconnect with his wife and children. Agreeing that the experiment should be taken further, the group increases the daily BAC limit to 0.10. Still finding their lives improved, the group decides to attempt binge drinking to observe how their bodies and minds respond. The group has a fun night, but after coming home drunk, both Martin and Nikolaj are confronted by their families. Martin’s family express their worries that he is descending into alcoholism, revealing that he has been visibly drunk for weeks. After a heated argument, Martin’s wife leaves him. The group abandons the experiment.
Months later, all the members of the group have stopped drinking during the day with the exception of Tommy, who has become an alcoholic. Dismissed from his work, Tommy boards his boat, sails out on the ocean and dies (presumably by taking his own life). The three remaining members of the group go out to dinner after Tommy's funeral and appear reluctant to the alcohol which is served. While dining, a group of their recently graduated students drive by and Martin, Peter and Nikolaj join their celebrations. Martin receives a message from his wife who states that she is willing to give their marriage a new chance. Both sad and overjoyed, Martin dances with the rest of the partygoers."
In reading the plot, it sounds plausible. I do not know today if I will watch it, yet.
