Primary
The film champions the restoration of a benevolent, traditional monarchy through the rightful heir, emphasizing duty, loyalty, and inherited leadership as the solution to tyranny, aligning with conservative values of order and tradition.
The film's casting reflects its cultural origin without explicit DEI-driven recasting of roles traditionally associated with other demographics. Its narrative maintains a neutral to positive framing of traditional identities and societal structures, focusing on themes of heroism and justice within its established cultural context rather than explicit DEI critiques.
Secondary
