Primary
The film's central thesis explicitly promotes progressive ideology by portraying an American capitalist as the villain exploiting Mexican peasants and championing anti-colonialism, anti-corporate greed, and social justice through direct action and wealth redistribution.
The film features prominent Latina actresses in its lead roles, set within a Mexican context. Its narrative explicitly frames a white American male antagonist as a figure of exploitation, against whom the female protagonists fight for justice.
Secondary
The film features María Álvarez, who demonstrates proficiency with a whip, using it to defeat multiple male opponents in close-quarters combat during various confrontations.
The film portrays Christianity positively through Padre Pablo, a Catholic priest who, despite some initial timidity, actively aids the protagonists in their fight against injustice. His character embodies moral support and aligns the faith with virtues of compassion and justice.
The film 'Bandidas' does not include any explicit or implicit LGBTQ+ characters or themes within its storyline. The narrative centers on heterosexual relationships and the adventures of its two female leads, resulting in no depiction of queer identity.
