Primary
While the film addresses the left-leaning concern of prejudice against immigrants, its solution champions individual talent, hard work, and entrepreneurial success as the means to achieve acceptance and cultural blending, leading to a neutral rating.
The movie showcases significant cultural diversity through its central Indian family and their interactions with a French community. While it explores themes of cultural integration and overcoming prejudice, the narrative maintains a neutral to positive portrayal of traditional identities, focusing on mutual understanding rather than critique.
Secondary
Christianity is depicted as the background faith of the French community, contributing to their cultural identity and traditions. While initial cultural clashes occur, the film ultimately promotes harmony and mutual respect between the communities, without critiquing the Christian faith itself.
