Leans Traditional
Primary
The film is a purely observational, two-second clip of people walking in a garden, lacking any discernible narrative, conflict, or thematic content that could be interpreted through a political lens. Its historical context as one of the earliest motion pictures further emphasizes its apolitical nature.
This film, a very early and extremely short production from 1888, does not exhibit any characteristics related to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. Its brief nature and historical context mean there is no intentional DEI casting or narrative framing of traditional identities or DEI themes.
Secondary
