What We Think

For those wary of modern ideological slants, 'India: The Modi Question' sets the woke-o-meter to high. Narrative and cultural roots are overshadowed by contemporary framing, and the ideological range is about as broad as a narrow alleyway.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Hyper Woke

What is this?

The documentary appears to frame its narrative strongly around contemporary Western ideological lenses, sometimes sidelining important regional complexities. Identity and political themes are placed front and center, arguably at the expense of a balanced or multifaceted portrayal of events and actors.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Traditional Indian perspectives, particularly around religion and national identity, are frequently scrutinized and, in some viewers' eyes, portrayed with suspicion or negativity. The documentary could be interpreted as undermining long-standing cultural and religious foundations in favor of modern social critiques.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Hyper Woke

What is this?

The show tends toward a singular worldview, presenting dissenting or non-Western-aligned perspectives through a critical lens. Traditional viewpoints are sometimes reduced to caricatures, with little sincere representation of alternative interpretations or national sentiments.
