Center

Primary

The film focuses on apolitical, universal themes such as hope, belief, kindness, and the spirit of giving, without promoting any specific political ideology or critiquing ideological extremes.

The movie features a predominantly white main cast for its central narrative, with a notable diverse character framing the story. The narrative itself does not critique traditional identities, instead focusing on a classic origin story with positive framing of its main characters.

Secondary

The film "A Boy Called Christmas" does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes within its narrative. The story focuses on a young boy's journey to find his father and discover the magical village of Elfhelm, establishing the origins of Father Christmas.

The film "A Boy Called Christmas" does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes. The narrative focuses on the origin story of Father Christmas within a traditional fantasy setting, with no elements related to transgender identity present in the plot or character arcs.

The film is a fantasy adventure that does not feature any scenes where a female character engages in or wins close-quarters physical combat against one or more male opponents. Conflicts are resolved through magical means or narrative progression, not physical altercations.

The film adapts Matt Haig's novel, maintaining the established genders of all primary characters from the source material. No character canonically or historically established as one gender is portrayed as a different gender.

The film adapts a recent novel, creating an origin story for Father Christmas. Key characters, including Nikolas, are portrayed consistently with their implied race in the source material and the broader historical archetype of Santa Claus. No established character's race was changed.
