OSS 117: Cairo, Nest of Spies (2006)

The film features a brief, stereotypical portrayal of a gay-coded character, primarily to highlight the protagonist's ignorance and prejudice through satire. While the satire targets bigotry, the reliance on a harmful stereotype for comedic effect, without offering dignity or complexity to the LGBTQ+ character, results in a net negative portrayal.

The film depicts Islam and Muslim characters through the prejudiced and ignorant lens of OSS 117. The narrative consistently ridicules his colonialist and bigoted views, making his prejudice the target of satire and affirming the dignity of the depicted Muslim characters and culture.

The film portrays anti-Semitic stereotypes and remarks through the protagonist, OSS 117. However, the narrative clearly satirizes his ignorance and bigotry, positioning the audience to condemn his prejudice rather than the religion itself.
