Detailed Bias Analysis

Analyzing...
Traditional

Primary

The film's central theme of condemning treason and emphasizing national loyalty and security strongly aligns with conservative values, positioning it as right-leaning due to its focus on the importance of the nation-state and its defense.

This Egyptian spy thriller features a cast that is traditional for its cultural context, focusing on Egyptian characters and national heroism. The narrative positively portrays its male protagonist and does not engage with DEI themes or critique traditional identities.

Secondary

The film's Egyptian protagonists are implicitly Muslim, and their patriotic and heroic actions are framed within a morally upright context. The narrative aligns with the virtues and dignity of their national and cultural identity, which includes Islamic values.

The film portrays Israeli intelligence agents, implicitly Jewish, as the primary antagonists whose actions of espionage and betrayal are depicted as cruel and deceitful. The narrative offers no counterbalancing positive portrayal or nuance regarding the religion itself, associating its adherents with negative actions.

Based on the provided information, the film 'Be'r El-khiana' does not appear to feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. Consequently, its portrayal of LGBTQ+ elements is rated as N/A.

The Well of Treason is a 1987 political thriller/drama centered on an intelligence officer uncovering corruption. There are no identifiable transsexual characters or themes present in the film's narrative or cast, resulting in no depiction relevant to the rubric.

The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.

The film is based on the true story of Egyptian spy Jumaa Al-Shawan. All main characters, including Jumaa Al-Shawan and his wife Fatma, are portrayed on screen with the same gender as their real-life historical counterparts. No instances of gender swapping are identified.

Be'r El-khiana (1987) is an original Egyptian film, not an adaptation of pre-existing material or a biopic. Its characters do not have a prior canonical or historical race, thus precluding any race swaps.
