While staying at an isolated island resort, James and Em are enjoying a perfect vacation of pristine beaches, exceptional staff, and soaking up the sun. But guided by the seductive and mysterious Gabi, they venture outside the resort grounds and find themselves in a culture filled with violence, hedonism, and untold horror. A tragic accident leaves them facing a zero tolerance policy for crime: either you'll be executed, or, if you’re rich enough to afford it, you can watch yourself die instead.

The film explicitly promotes a progressive, anti-capitalist, and anti-colonialist critique of wealth, privilege, and systemic impunity, aligning with a Marxist perspective.
The movie *Infinity Pool* addresses themes of diversity, equity, and inclusion primarily through its narrative critique of wealth, privilege, and systemic injustice, particularly highlighting the moral consequences of unchecked affluence and neo-colonial dynamics. The film does not explicitly focus on conventional race or gender representation in its casting, but its story strongly frames the negative impacts of economic power and social inequality.
Infinity Pool portrays LGBTQ-related sexuality through the character Gabi, whose fluid sexuality is a facet of her dominant and manipulative persona. The film embeds these elements within a broader exploration of power, excess, and moral ambiguity, rather than focusing on LGBTQ identity as a central or affirming theme. The depiction is neither celebratory nor explicitly denigrating towards LGBTQ identity itself.
The film uses Christian thematic parallels to explore sin, guilt, and the metaphysical decay of the self, implicitly affirming the significance of Christ's sacrifice by contrasting it with the characters' incomplete atonement.
Infinity Pool (2023) does not include any identifiable transsexual characters or themes. The film's narrative is centered on psychological and philosophical explorations of identity, class, and violence, without engaging with LGBTQ+ representations.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
Infinity Pool is an original film without pre-existing source material or historical basis. All characters were created for this film, and their on-screen portrayal aligns with their initial conception, thus precluding any gender swaps.
The film is an original work, not an adaptation. Major characters are cast consistently with their implied Western origins. The local population of the fictional country Li Tolqa, while not ethnographically matching a typical tropical island, does not constitute a race swap as there is no prior established race for this original, fictional setting or its inhabitants.
