Based on a murder that shocked New York in 1964, Kitty Genovis was brutally raped and killed. All 37 of her neighbors witnessed it, but no one came forward or called the police for help. To this end, the New York Times wrote an article aimed directly at witnesses who did not lend a helping hand. However, the film "Silent 37" shows a different perspective, deeply analyzes the reasons why they turn a blind eye from the various problems faced by these 37 witnesses, and reflects contemporary social problems, which is thought-provoking.
