Leans Progressive
Primary
The film's dominant themes of power dynamics, consent, and the subversion of traditional gender roles align with progressive values, exploring individual agency and the performance of identity within a complex transactional relationship rather than offering a broad systemic critique.
The movie features a small, traditional cast without explicit diversity. Its narrative explores complex power dynamics and subverts traditional gender roles, subtly critiquing aspects of male privilege without explicitly portraying traditional identities negatively.
Secondary
The show features Ashley Magnus, a character with enhanced physical attributes, who frequently engages in and wins close-quarters physical fights against multiple male opponents, including both human and abnormal adversaries.
The show 'Sanctuary' does not include any prominent or identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. Consequently, there is no specific portrayal to evaluate under the provided rubric, leading to an N/A rating.
