Center
Primary
The film is a lighthearted slapstick and romantic comedy centered on an individual's journey to join an elite police unit, with its core subject matter and solutions being largely apolitical and focused on personal growth within existing institutions.
The movie features a primarily traditional cast. Its narrative, however, centers on a woman striving to join a male-dominated elite police unit, which provides a comedic exploration of gender inclusion. The film subtly critiques initial resistance to diversity, ultimately showing traditional identities adapting and accepting change.
Secondary
The film does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. Its narrative centers on a heterosexual protagonist's journey to join an elite police unit and her romantic pursuits, offering no portrayal to evaluate.
The film features Johanna Pasquali, a clumsy police officer who joins an elite unit. While she participates in action sequences, her successes are typically accidental or rely on comedic chaos rather than demonstrating skill, strength, or martial arts prowess in direct physical combat against male opponents.
R.A.I.D. Special Unit is an original French comedy film and not an adaptation of existing source material or a reboot featuring legacy characters. All characters were created specifically for this film, thus precluding any gender swaps from prior established canon.
This film is an original French comedy and does not adapt any prior source material or depict historical figures. All characters were created for this specific film, meaning there are no pre-established racial identities to be altered.
