Chi-Raq (2015) is a contemporary retelling of the classic Greek comedy "Lysistrata" by Aristophanes, set against the backdrop of escalating violence in Chicago. The narrative unfolds after a tragic incident where a child is fatally struck by a stray bullet. In response, a determined group of women, spearheaded by Lysistrata, band together to combat the persistent violence plaguing Chicago's Southside. Their movement not only addresses the immediate crisis but also delves into broader themes of race, gender, and violence, sparking a global conversation.
