Center
Primary
The series explores complex ethical and existential dilemmas arising from its parallel worlds premise, presenting moral ambiguities on both sides of the conflict without explicitly endorsing a particular political ideology or solution, thus earning a neutral rating.
The series 'Counterpart' features a visibly diverse ensemble cast in its original roles. The narrative primarily focuses on its science fiction premise and character-driven drama, without explicitly critiquing traditional identities or centering DEI themes within its storyline.
Secondary
Counterpart features a character, Greta, in a same-sex relationship. This aspect of her identity is presented incidentally, as a natural part of her life in the parallel dimension. The portrayal is neutral, neither affirming nor problematic, and does not serve as a central theme or source of conflict within the narrative.
Counterpart does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes within its narrative. The series focuses on espionage, parallel dimensions, and the exploration of identity through its core premise, without engaging with transgender identity.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
