However, its narrative is centrally focused on the evolving relationship between these characters against a backdrop of racial prejudice in the American South, offering a significant critique of historical societal norms.
Secondary

The film portrays Miss Daisy's Jewish identity with dignity and respect. It depicts the antisemitism she faces, but the narrative unequivocally condemns this prejudice, positioning the audience to sympathize with her and affirming the resilience of her faith.
