Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

This Spanish film centers on an aging mathematics professor facing Alzheimer's, focusing on heartfelt family dynamics rather than box-ticking representation. Characters are multi-dimensional, and their backgrounds serve the human story, not ideology. No obvious focus on identity politics.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Traditional themes, such as family ties, intergenerational respect, and finding meaning late in life, are celebrated, not undermined. Masculinity, old age, or traditional roles aren't villainized. The film leans into the importance of family support and heritage.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Alternative perspectives, rural vs. urban, generational divides, are treated with nuance. There's little sign of forced consensus around modern social issues; characters lead authentic, different lives. No mockery of alternative lifestyles or worldviews is present.
