Primary
The film's central narrative champions the defeat of a tyrannical, exploitative landowner and the establishment of justice and social progress through law and education, aligning with left-leaning values of anti-exploitation and social reform.
The movie features a diverse Latinx cast, which is traditional for its genre and cultural origin. Its narrative centers on a strong female protagonist seeking revenge against male antagonists, but this is framed as a personal drama rather than an explicit critique of traditional identities or a central DEI theme.
Secondary
La Doña features a prominent and positively depicted lesbian relationship between main character Mónica Hernández and Regina Sandoval. Their romance is portrayed with dignity and emotional depth, serving as a central LGBTQ+ storyline that affirms queer love and identity within the narrative.
