Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The show is a documentary-style exploration of the exodus of Kashmiri Hindus in the 1990s, focusing on testimonies and archival footage. It appears to prioritize direct, personal storytelling over ideological messaging, with little evidence of forced representation or the masking of flaws for diverse characters.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Rather than undermining religion, family, or cultural traditions, the series seems to foreground them, highlighting the suffering and resilience of a persecuted community. Depictions of faith and family bonds are presented earnestly, with no apparent effort to subvert traditional values.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Mildly Woke

What is this?

Though the series centers on one perspective and the plight of a particular group, it doesn't overtly mock or villainize traditional or alternative worldviews, instead, it presents a narrative often ignored by mainstream media. There's some focus on one victim group, but not in a caricatured way.
