Leans Progressive
Primary
The film's dominant themes align with progressive values, primarily through its consistent portrayal of systemic oppression by a dominant power and the championing of liberation and awakening from that control, particularly evident in the depiction of the human-machine war's origins and individual acts of rebellion.
The Animatrix features a visibly diverse cast across its anthology of shorts, consistent with the established universe of The Matrix. The narratives delve into themes of reality, freedom, and the human-machine conflict, rather than explicitly centering on critiques of traditional identities.
Secondary

The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
