Primary

It offers a subtle critique of the protagonist's privileged position and his denial of past actions, indirectly addressing themes of societal responsibility and hidden truths.
Secondary
The film portrays Majid and his son, implicitly Muslim due to their Algerian background, as victims of historical and personal injustice. The narrative condemns the prejudice and actions of Georges, positioning the audience to sympathize with the victimized family and critique the societal guilt related to colonialism.
