Major Arcana is a drama film directed by Josh Melrod and released in 2018. The film follows the story of Dink, a recovering alcoholic who returns to his small hometown in Vermont to reconnect with his past and build a new future for himself.
Dink comes from a family of alcoholics, including his mother Jean, who is a compulsive gambler. He has spent much of his life trying to distance himself from his tumultuous upbringing, which involved a lot of drinking, fighting, and emotional abuse.
After getting sober and spending several years away from home, Dink comes back to Vermont with a new sense of purpose. He wants to build his own log cabin, which he sees as a symbol of his commitment to self-reliance and personal growth.
However, Dink's plans are complicated by his past relationships, particularly with Sierra, his former girlfriend who also struggled with addiction. As Dink tries to rebuild his life, Sierra resurfaces and forces him to confront the painful memories and emotions that he has been trying to avoid.
Ultimately, Major Arcana is a story about the struggle to overcome addiction and the challenges of change. Dink's journey is both inspiring and harrowing, and it offers a unique perspective on the difficult process of rebuilding one's life after losing control.
