Detailed Bias Analysis

Strong Left

Primary

Political: Leans LeftConfidence: High

The film's central narrative critiques forced displacement and cultural imposition, championing interspecies empathy, cultural exchange, and the embrace of diversity as the solution, aligning with progressive values.

Diversity: HighConfidence: High

The movie demonstrates significant DEI by featuring a young Black girl as its lead protagonist and her mother as a key character, showcasing intentional diversity in its central roles. The narrative, however, focuses on themes of adventure and family without explicitly critiquing traditional identities.

Secondary

Race Swap: YesConfidence: High

The main protagonist, Tip Tucci, was depicted as a white girl in the source novel, "The True Meaning of Smekday." In the film adaptation, she is portrayed as a Black girl, voiced by Rihanna, which constitutes a race swap.

LGBTQ: N/AConfidence: High

The animated film 'Home' does not include any discernible LGBTQ+ characters or themes. Its narrative centers on a young girl and an alien's adventure to find belonging and save Earth, resulting in no LGBTQ+ portrayal to evaluate.

FemPower: NoConfidence: High

The film primarily features a young female protagonist, Tip, who navigates challenges through intelligence, resourcefulness, and driving skills. Her interactions with male-coded alien characters involve evasion and outsmarting them, rather than direct physical combat. No female character engages in or wins close-quarters physical fights against male opponents.

Gender Swap: NoConfidence: High

The film "Home" (2015) is an adaptation of the book "The True Meaning of Smekday." All primary characters, including Tip, Oh, and Captain Smek, maintain the same gender as established in the original source material. No characters canonically established as one gender were portrayed as a different gender in the film.
