Center
Primary
The film explores the intersection of quantum physics, consciousness, and spirituality, asserting that individual perception shapes reality. Its central focus on personal transformation and internal change, rather than societal or political structures, positions it as neutral on the political spectrum.
The film, a docudrama exploring quantum physics and consciousness, features a visibly diverse cast of experts and a deaf actress in its fictional segments. Its narrative, however, does not engage in critique of traditional identities or explicitly center DEI themes, focusing instead on its core scientific and spiritual concepts.
Secondary
The film's core themes of consciousness, interconnectedness, and the power of thought align strongly with Buddhist philosophy, presenting these concepts as profound and transformative truths.
Similar to Buddhism, the film's exploration of consciousness, the self, and the nature of reality resonates deeply with Hindu philosophical traditions, particularly Advaita Vedanta, presenting these ideas as fundamental to understanding existence.
This documentary-drama focuses on scientific and spiritual concepts, presenting a fictional narrative about a woman's spiritual awakening. There are no discernible LGBTQ+ characters or themes present within the film's content, leading to a net impact of N/A.
The film "What the #$*! Do We (K)now!?" is a documentary-drama exploring quantum physics, consciousness, and spirituality. It does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes within its narrative or expert interviews.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
This film is an original work, not an adaptation of pre-existing material with established characters. All characters are either new creations for the film or real individuals portraying themselves, thus precluding any gender swaps from prior canon.
This film is an original documentary-drama hybrid, not an adaptation of pre-existing source material with established characters or a biopic of specific historical figures. Therefore, no characters exist who were canonically or historically established as one race and then portrayed as another.
