The Guide to the Perfect Family (French: Le Guide de la famille parfaite) is a Canadian comedy-drama film, directed by Ricardo Trogi and released in 2021.[1] The film stars Louis Morissette and Catherine Chabot as Martin Dubois and Marie-Soleil Blouin, a married couple with a tendency toward helicopter parenting. This creates problems for Rose (Émilie Bierre), Louis's 16-year-old daughter from his prior marriage to Caroline (Isabelle Guérard).[2]

The film premiered theatrically in Quebec on July 14, 2021.[3] It was acquired by Netflix for international distribution.[4]

In its year-end review of Canadian film and television in 2021, the trade magazine Playback ranked it as the Film of the Year.[5]
