The film explores the devastating consequences of war born from misunderstanding and xenophobia, ultimately resolving the conflict through a unique, non-political spiritual revelation rather than promoting specific progressive or conservative ideologies.

The movie features a visibly diverse cast with established minority characters, reflecting the inclusive nature of the Babylon 5 universe without explicitly recasting traditionally white roles. Its narrative primarily focuses on inter-species conflict and the human struggle for survival, rather than offering a critique of traditional identities or centering on explicit DEI themes.
