Detailed Bias Analysis

Analyzing...
Leans Progressive

Primary

The film leans left by centering its conflict on the exploitation of the less fortunate by a wealthy elite and an unethical corporation, highlighting themes of wealth disparity and corporate malfeasance, despite its resolution focusing on individual moral awakening.

The movie features some visible diversity in its supporting cast, but the central protagonist's identity remains consistently a white male. The narrative does not explicitly critique traditional identities, nor does it center on DEI themes, focusing instead on identity, ethics, and corporate greed.

Secondary

The film "Self/less" does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The narrative centers on a heterosexual male protagonist and his relationships with women (his daughter and the wife of the body's original owner), leaving no room for LGBTQ+ representation.

The film "Self/less" does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes. Its plot focuses on consciousness transfer, identity theft, and the ethical implications of such a procedure, without engaging with gender identity or transition in any capacity.

The film does not feature any female characters engaging in or winning close-quarters physical combat against male opponents. Female characters are present but are not depicted in action roles that involve such combat scenarios.

Self/less is an original science fiction film with characters created specifically for this movie. There are no pre-existing canonical or historical characters whose gender could have been altered.

The film "Self/less" is an original screenplay, not an adaptation of pre-existing material or a biopic. All characters were created for this specific film, meaning none had a prior canonical or historical race to be altered.
