Center

Primary

Political: CenterConfidence: High

The film critiques the impersonal nature of government bureaucracy through the plight of a stateless individual, but its solution champions individual perseverance and human kindness rather than advocating for specific political reforms, leading to a neutral rating.

Diversity: ModerateConfidence: High

The film features a diverse cast that naturally reflects an international airport environment, without explicitly recasting traditionally white roles for DEI purposes. The narrative focuses on an immigrant's struggle with bureaucracy and human connection, rather than offering a critical portrayal of traditional identities.
