However, its central solution emphasizes individual healing through therapy, personal responsibility, and the search for familial connection, resulting in a balanced narrative that avoids explicit ideological promotion.
The movie features a predominantly Black cast, naturally reflecting the true story of its Black protagonist. The narrative centers on themes of healing from trauma and finding family, without explicitly critiquing traditional identities or making DEI themes overtly central to its message.
Secondary
The film portrays Christianity, as practiced by Antwone's foster mother, as a tool for oppression, hypocrisy, and abuse, directly contributing to Antwone's severe childhood trauma.
