The film features traditional casting that aligns with the source material, without explicit race or gender swaps of established roles. Its narrative, however, subtly critiques the societal norms and injustices of the antebellum South through the moral journey of its protagonist and the portrayal of an enslaved man seeking freedom.
Secondary
