Primary
The film's central subject matter, a performance art piece exploring vulnerability and risk, is primarily artistic and existential, lacking explicit political messaging or alignment with partisan ideologies.
This performance art piece features the artist and an assistant, both white males, with no explicit diversity in its participants. The minimalist narrative focuses on the act itself, without engaging with or critiquing traditional identities or incorporating DEI themes.
