Primary
The film leans left by critically examining Roman imperial power's attempt to suppress a nascent religious movement through political manipulation, thereby highlighting the resilience of popular belief against oppressive state authority.
Damiano Damiani's 'The Inquiry' employs traditional casting practices consistent with its historical setting in ancient Judea and Rome, without incorporating intentional race or gender swaps. The narrative focuses on historical and religious themes, portraying traditional identities in a neutral or positive light, rather than featuring explicit DEI critiques or themes as central to its story.
Secondary
The film portrays early Christianity with respect and dignity, emphasizing the transformative power of faith and the conviction of its adherents. The narrative arc shows the protagonist's initial skepticism giving way to an understanding and implicit validation of the Christian message.
