What We Think

'India Lockdown' keeps most of its focus on human experiences rather than activism. While there are modern themes, they rarely overwhelm the story or traditional values. It’s far from the wokest offering out there, but some touches are definitely present.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Woke

What is this?

While 'India Lockdown' does foreground diverse experiences during the COVID-19 pandemic, it generally grounds them in relatable personal struggles rather than overt identity politics. However, some viewers may sense that characters occasionally lean into certain topical archetypes over deeper character development.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Mildly Woke

What is this?

The film portrays family, resilience, and community amid crisis, largely honoring traditional values. There’s little evidence of undermining religion or core cultural pillars; it instead highlights how these elements help individuals cope during hardship.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Woke

What is this?

Though the film focuses on marginalized groups, it doesn’t paint dissenting voices or alternative worldviews as outright villainous. There's a range of perspectives, with an emphasis on empathy for all, rather than shoehorning a strict ideological consensus.
