Progressive
Primary
The film's central thesis explicitly promotes a progressive ideology by critiquing the systemic issues of imperialism, war, and the exploitation of indigenous populations by state and foreign powers.
This film features a cast that authentically reflects its Bolivian setting, focusing on indigenous characters. Its narrative strongly critiques colonial and capitalist exploitation, portraying oppressive power structures negatively and centering the struggle for liberation by indigenous people.
Secondary
The film, set against the backdrop of a Latin American dictatorship, portrays the institutional Christian church as either complicit with the oppressive regime or as failing to actively challenge social injustice. This aligns with a common critique in anti-imperialist cinema, where established religious bodies are depicted as part of the status quo that revolutionaries fight against.
The provided input for the film 'Yaguar' by Sebastián Alarcón did not contain any details or context regarding LGBTQ+ characters or themes. Therefore, an evaluation of its portrayal is not possible, and it is categorized as N/A due to a lack of depiction information.
