House of Sand and Fog (2003)

The film meticulously balances the perspectives and legitimate claims of both protagonists, resulting in a tragedy that transcends specific political ideologies and instead focuses on universal themes of desperation, dignity, and the failure of empathy, leading to a neutral rating.

The movie features a cast diverse in ethnicity, central to its narrative of cultural conflict between an Iranian immigrant family and a white American woman. The story explores the tragic consequences of misunderstandings and systemic failures, portraying characters from all backgrounds with nuance rather than explicitly critiquing or negatively framing traditional identities.
