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. 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).
The film premiered theatrically in Quebec on July 14, 2021. It was acquired by Netflix for international distribution.
In its year-end review of Canadian film and television in 2021, the trade magazine Playback ranked it as the Film of the Year.
