<![CDATA[This study examines the ideological discourse embedded in the 2023 film Ethics, with a focus on the depiction of character education and morality. Through critical discourse analysis, this research identifies how films build moral values, representations of ethical dilemmas, and ideological messages conveyed to the audience. This research highlights the role of film in shaping public perception of ethics and character education.
