Ziam succeeds in providing a non-Western perspective on the zombie genre, using Thai culture and settings to drive the narrative. The film's strength lies in its critique of corporate power and environmental collapse. However, the film struggles with representation in areas of disability and LGBTQ+ identities, which remain largely unaddressed. The focus remains heavily on the central heterosexual romance and physical survival. Ultimately, the film's diversity is found in its cultural localization and its subversion of Western-centric survival clichés, even if individual character identities are limited.
Category Breakdown
The story focuses on the romantic relationship between Singh and Rin. It doesn't include explicit LGBTQ narratives or non-cisgender identities, but the dystopian setting avoids strict straight-centered traditions.
Rin avoids the damsel-in-distress cliché by providing essential medical expertise as a doctor. Her professional role creates a balanced partnership with Singh's martial arts skills during the survival crisis.
By centering Thai protagonists and local settings like Bangkok, the film avoids a Western-centric lens. Muay Thai serves as a vehicle for ethnic pride within the global catastrophe.
The film offers a strong critique of corporate dominance and capitalist structures through the VS Corporation. It links the biological outbreak to climate change and environmental mismanagement.
There is no evidence of neurodivergent or physically disabled characters having ability to act. The zombie element functions as a metaphor for contagion rather than exploring lived experiences of disability.
