Primary
The film's central conflict and resolution champion individual bodily autonomy and the right to self-determination over familial obligation, aligning with left-leaning values.
The movie primarily features traditional casting with a predominantly white main cast, without explicit race or gender swaps for traditionally white roles. Its narrative focuses on a family drama, neither critiquing traditional identities nor making explicit DEI themes central to the story.
Secondary
