This biopic, set within the historical context of the 1960s folk music scene, focuses on the social dynamics and personal journey of its central figure. The casting does not indicate any intentional race or gender swaps of traditionally white roles, and the narrative centers on musical evolution and the pressures of fame without explicitly critiquing traditional identities or featuring DEI themes.
