Drama Movies Excel in handling Social Issues

By definition a drama movie is all about characters dipped in realism and portraying emotional themes and a social focus. The themes carry greater social commitment and exude contemporary relevance in terms of the issues raised.

Varied topics such as alcoholism, infidelity, political violence, moral dilemmas, racial prejudice, religious bigotry, poverty, sexuality, class divisions, atrocities against women or weaker sections, unemployment, or corruption come handy to the filmmakers of this genre. 

Generally the characters in the movies will be seen battling an antagonistic force or forces most of the time. In the quest to resolve the issue, there may be cathartic or painful resolution at the end. It can be the death of a family member in Terms of Endearment or a divorce as in Kramer vs Kramer.
