The movie features visible racial and ethnic diversity in its supporting cast, including actors of varied backgrounds in named roles. The narrative also incorporates themes of economic inequality through an anti-gentrification plotline and positively portrays elderly protagonists, without explicitly critiquing traditional identities.
