Fireproof

Fireproof (2008) follows a heroic fire captain whose unwavering commitment to duty and service begins to imperil his marriage. As flames threaten the home he shares with his wife, the film zeroes in on the smouldering resentment and neglect that have eroded their bond. A 40-day experiment in marital devotion offers a chance at redemption, but the captain's rigid adherence to his principles may prove as dangerous as any inferno. Director Alex Kendrick crafts a sobering drama about the cost of prioritizing work over love.
