Primary
The film's central focus on extreme and transgressive sexuality, coupled with its exploration of power dynamics and desire, does not align with or advocate for any specific political ideology, resulting in a neutral rating.
The movie features a cast reflective of its Japanese origin, without explicit DEI-driven casting or recasting of traditionally white roles. Its narrative primarily focuses on erotic and transgressive themes, rather than offering a critical portrayal of traditional identities within a Western DEI context.
Secondary
