What is Gritty?
1.
harsh, coarse, rough and unrefined, as in film depictions that portray life as it truly is, without false distortions, stylizations, or idealizations. Often, the realism is exaggerated such that the culture or society being portrayed appears more coarse than it really is.
The film "28 Days Later" is a gritty, dirt-under-your-fingernails kind of raw.

A type of realism, usually invoked by films and documentary. Strangely

Film Critic: " X is a film depicting the gritty realism of life in the New York suburbs"
or
"the gritty realism of this documentary is in stark contrast to his other work"
