City of Ghosts (2021)

The film's central focus on grassroots citizen journalism exposing human rights abuses by a totalitarian regime, coupled with its emphasis on the plight of civilians and the moral imperative of truth-telling, aligns with progressive values of anti-authoritarianism and social justice.

The documentary 'City of Ghosts' features a cast that reflects the real-world diversity of its Syrian subjects. The narrative focuses on their fight against extremism and the human impact of conflict, without explicitly critiquing traditional identities or centering on DEI themes as a primary narrative driver.
