Center
Primary
The film's left-leaning rating is primarily due to its Soviet origin, which subtly promotes values of collective discovery, scientific progress for the common good, and the development of a well-rounded citizen, aligning with broader socialist ideals rather than individualistic or traditionalist ones.
This 1981 Soviet-era children's adventure film features traditional casting consistent with its time and origin, without explicit modern diversity initiatives. The narrative focuses on adventure and discovery, presenting its characters and themes in a neutral or positive light without critiquing traditional identities.
Secondary
The film, consistent with its Soviet context and theme of 'discoveries,' likely portrays Christianity as an outdated or superstitious belief system that contrasts with scientific progress and rational thought.
Based on the available information, the film does not appear to feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes, resulting in an N/A rating for its portrayal.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
The film is an original production, not an adaptation of pre-existing material or a reboot. All characters are new to this film, meaning there are no pre-established characters whose gender could have been altered from a prior canon or historical record.
There is no evidence that "A Hundred Joys, or The Book of Great Discoveries" is an adaptation of source material with canonically established character races, nor does it feature historical figures whose races were altered. The film's characters appear consistent with its original setting and context.
