Masterplan operates within a traditional comedic-drama framework, focusing primarily on the individual neuroses of its male protagonist. While the film touches on class friction through the interaction between Mariano and a homeless man, it does not move beyond these character-driven conflicts to address broader social issues. The film lacks intentionality regarding characters who reflect more than one aspect of diversity, failing to engage with LGBTQ+ themes, diverse racial casting, or the subversion of gender roles, resulting in a narrative that feels conventional and centered on a standard regional demographic.
Category Breakdown
Does Masterplan have LGBTQ+ representation?
The film does not address LGBTQ+ themes or challenge the idea that everyone is straight. The main character's journey towards marriage does not include discussions about sexual orientation or gender identity.
How does Masterplan portray gender?
The story centers on Mariano, a male protagonist dealing with personal anxieties. There is little evidence of women taking significant roles or challenging traditional gender norms.
How racially and ethnically diverse is Masterplan?
As an Argentine production, the film reflects typical regional demographics. There is no specific evidence of diverse casting that addresses multiple aspects of identity.
How does Masterplan represent religion and culture?
The plot explores socioeconomic friction between an urban professional and a homeless man. This provides a look at class complexities, though it does not address broader institutional issues.
Does Masterplan include disability representation?
The inclusion of an eccentric homeless man introduces a character on the social margins. However, it is unclear if this role offers nuance or relies on stereotypes related to mental health.
Present on Screen
- Explores socioeconomic friction and class complexities through the interaction of different social strata.

Limited or Absent
- Lacks visible engagement with LGBTQ+ themes or non-assuming gender matches what was assigned at birth identities.
- Provides limited evidence of women taking significant roles or challenging traditional gender norms.
- Fails to explicitly challenge or embrace multi-layered racial diversity.
- The portrayal of the homeless character risks relying on clichés rather than nuanced neurodivergent representation.
