The film follows traditional genre conventions, emphasizing mythological conflicts and established hero archetypes. It does not explore diverse social identities or challenge traditional hierarchies. Instead, it focuses on a singular mythic hero and a straightforward moral framework. The production provides a non-Western perspective through its Mexican roots and traditional folklore. However, it maintains a focus on a single, mythic hero and does not delve into diverse social identities or challenge traditional gender roles. The narrative structure reinforces these traditional elements rather than disrupting them.
