Primary
The film's central themes are existential and spiritual, focusing on universal human experiences of love, loss, and the acceptance of mortality, rather than engaging with specific political ideologies or societal structures.
The movie features a predominantly white main cast without explicit race or gender swaps of traditional roles. Its narrative explores universal themes of love and mortality, focusing on the personal journey of its characters without explicitly critiquing traditional identities or centering on DEI themes.
Secondary
