LR: film industry assessment

2)Q1: 1/2
Q2: 2/4
Q3: 4/9

It shows people the negative lives that some people live. Usually they focus on what is going on in someone's life and the way they live with a certain situation. Predominantly, all of the social-realism films include a message to the audience in order to create a sense of social awareness.
