Honestly, I don't have such a movie to suggest, I don't think such a movie can exist, due to the Backfire Effect. Changing people's minds takes time, and the impetus to change has to come from within. The handful of times that I've managed to do it involved sharing an idea or observation that doesn't immediately trigger their defenses, but metaphorically is like dropping a grain of sand in the gears of their mind, and then letting it do the work of grinding away at the teeth, until one day their old thought process breaks down. It can take months.
Ive also been at it for a few months. this is the first movie night I'm gonna have with her. So far it's just been us discussing things and ive made some decent progress ngl :0 My main goal is for her to detach herself from Trump above all else. And whatever conspiracy theories she's into at the moment
