Just watched last year's #Eden #movie.
It was a fascinating story of relationship dynamics of several "families" on an isolated island. Based on the accounts of real events, to boot. It was expected that there would be some fight for resources, but I was surprised by masterful directing which made the story compelling despite the lack of the real "good guys" to root for.

Freedom is a balancing act that requires knowing when to relinquish authority.... Too much control prevents us from seeing possibilities beyond our immediate desires. Too much order stifles the healthy chaos, the restlessness, of a truly open mind.

If we strive to be happy by filling all the silences of life with sound, productive by turning all life's leisure into work, and real by turning all our being into doing, we will only succeed in producing a hell on earth.
-- Thomas Merton (No Man is an Island)
