Center
Primary
The film's central critique targets corporate exploitation and the systemic manipulation of an individual's life for profit, aligning with progressive concerns about power structures and the commodification of human experience, despite the individualistic nature of the solution.
The film features a predominantly traditional and white cast without intentional race or gender swaps. Its narrative focuses on themes of media control and personal freedom, rather than offering a critique of traditional identities or explicitly incorporating DEI themes.
Secondary

The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
