DEFINITION OF DRAMA
                   GENRE

A drama film is a film genre that depends mostly on in-depth development of realistic
characters dealing with emotional themes. Dramatic themes such as alcoholism, drug
addiction, racial prejudice, religious intolerance, poverty, class divisions, violence against
women and corruption put the characters in conflict with themselves, others, society and
even natural phenomena. Drama is the most broad of movies genres and includes
subgenres as romantic drama, sport films, period drama, courtroom drama and crime.
