"A movie about poverty will probably not be a pleasant movie to watch. So don't shove it down people's throats."

How is simply making a movie about poverty shoving it down your throat?

It's not like anyone would force you to watch it.

The undertone of the article is that people need to be exposed to poverty through cinema. Hence, shoving down people's throats.
