The Film

Directed, produced, and filmed by Academy Award–nominated and Emmy–winning filmmaker Matthew Heineman, City of Ghosts is a singularly powerful cinematic experience that is sure to shake audiences to their core as it elevates the canon of one of the most talented documentary filmmakers working today. Captivating in its immediacy, City of Ghosts follows the journey of “Raqqa is Being Slaughtered Silently” – a handful of anonymous activists who banded together after their homeland was taken over by ISIS in 2014. With astonishing, deeply personal access, this is the story of a brave group of citizen journalists as they face the realities of life undercover, on the run, and in exile, risking their lives to stand up against one of the greatest evils in the world today.

However, the film’s portrayal of women is its most debated aspect. Critics argue that the female characters—Chiku, Supriya, and Kusshum—are written as one-dimensional caricatures designed to be the villains of the story. They are often depicted as manipulative or materialistic, leading to accusations of misogyny. Supporters of the film, however, argue that it is a satire intended to exaggerate real-world relationship "red flags" for comedic effect, rather than a serious commentary on all women.

Doubled down on the themes of the original 2011 film.

Starring Kartik Aaryan, Omkar Kapoor, Sunny Singh, Nushrat Bharucha, Ishita Raj Sharma, and Sonnalli Seygall.

Interestingly, the film became a on piracy sites because of its strong word-of-mouth. People who missed it in cinemas turned to Filmyzilla for a free download—not realizing the long-term damage to the industry.
