The Commune (2017)

It's the '70s and Erik has inherited his family home. It's too large for his 3-person family so, rather than sell, his wife Anna convinces him that they should form a commune. Soon they've filled the house and are making decisions via vote, but Erik struggles to find his place in his expanded circumstances.

It's a perfect "be careful what you wish for" tale: never heavy-handed, the story progresses inevitably with everyone responding in their own ways to the new paradigm. It's a wonderfully natural film from Thomas Vinterburg (Another Round & The Hunt) -- safe to say I'm becoming a fan.
