The film lacks discernible LGBTQ+ characters or narratives. The story focuses strictly on the conflict between the journalist and Dr. Knox without addressing non-cisnormative identities.

The narrative is heavily centered on a male protagonist and antagonist. It follows a traditional masculine-driven plot structure that provides little agency to female characters.

Set in Barcelona, the film reflects a localized European setting. It lacks diverse ethnic blending or a deliberate push for intersectional casting within its Spanish thriller framework.

The film operates within a secular, genre-specific framework. It adheres to traditional horror tropes rather than engaging with religious or systemic social critiques.

Mental instability is used as a standard horror trope via the 'madman' archetype. There is no portrayal of neurodivergent characters possessing agency or empowerment.
