Primary
The film explores universal themes of family, faith, and nature without explicitly promoting a particular political ideology, balancing elements that could appeal to both conservative values (tradition, individual responsibility) and progressive sensibilities (environmentalism, critique of dogma).
Based on the director's name, this film is presumed to be a Chinese production. Without specific plot or casting details, it is assumed to feature traditional casting for its cultural context and does not explicitly critique traditional identities within its narrative.
Secondary
