Center
Primary
The film satirizes both the excesses of corporate materialism and the impracticalities of extreme communal living, ultimately championing a personal, balanced path rather than a specific political ideology.
The movie features a cast with some visible diversity, though it does not appear to involve explicit race or gender swaps of traditionally white roles. The narrative primarily focuses on a comedic exploration of different lifestyles without explicitly critiquing or negatively portraying traditional identities.
Secondary
The film features a bisexual/pansexual character, Seth, whose identity is presented as a natural aspect of his free-spirited nature within a commune setting. While a same-sex kiss is used for comedic effect, the overall portrayal avoids strong positive or negative arcs, making its impact largely incidental.

The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
