Leans Progressive
Primary
The film focuses on universal humanistic themes of individual resilience and survival, deliberately avoiding engagement with contemporary U.S. political issues or partisan debates, thus maintaining a neutral stance.
The movie demonstrates significant DEI by featuring older women in central, active roles, challenging traditional age and gender norms in thrillers. Its narrative actively subverts gender expectations and counters stereotypical portrayals of older women, highlighting female agency and emotional depth. While strong in age and gender inclusivity, the film's racial and ethnic diversity among principal characters appears limited.
Secondary
Barb, an ordinary woman, engages in close-quarters physical and armed combat against a male antagonist and his partner. She demonstrates resilience and determination, ultimately overcoming them to achieve her objective.
Based on available plot descriptions and reviews, *Dead of Winter* (2025) does not include or focus on LGBTQ+ characters or themes.
