Detailed Bias Analysis

Analyzing...
Leans Traditional

Primary

The film receives a neutral rating because it primarily focuses on the universal human experience of a family navigating sectarian conflict and making a personal decision for safety and a better future, rather than promoting a specific political ideology or taking a side in the conflict itself.

The movie 'Belfast' features a cast that accurately reflects its historical setting in 1969 Northern Ireland, with no explicit DEI-driven casting choices. The narrative focuses on a traditional family unit, portraying these identities in a neutral to positive manner without centralizing modern DEI themes or critiquing traditional identities.

Secondary

The film portrays the destructive nature of sectarian conflict within Christianity, clearly condemning the bigotry and violence perpetrated in its name. The narrative positions the audience to sympathize with those victimized by extremism and those who seek peace, many of whom are also adherents of Christianity. This critiques the abuse of faith rather than the faith itself, showing the community's reliance on faith for solace amidst the conflict.

Belfast does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The narrative is exclusively focused on the experiences of a heterosexual family and their community during a specific historical period, resulting in no portrayal to evaluate.

Belfast is a coming-of-age drama set during The Troubles in Northern Ireland, focusing on a working-class family's experiences. The narrative centers on sectarian conflict, family dynamics, and childhood. The film does not include any discernible transsexual characters or themes.

The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.

Belfast is an original, semi-autobiographical film. Its characters are new creations for this specific movie, not adaptations of pre-existing canonical figures or widely established historical individuals. Therefore, no gender swaps occur.

Belfast is a semi-autobiographical film set in 1969 Northern Ireland, depicting a white working-class family. All major characters are portrayed by actors of the same race as their real-life counterparts and the historical context, thus containing no race swaps.
