Tori and Lokita

Tori challenges traditional gender roles through her strong leadership and survival skills. The relationship between the protagonists avoids romantic clichés, emphasizing mutual support and shared hardships.

The film touches on the vulnerabilities associated with extreme poverty. However, it does not specifically address neurodevelopmental conditions or clinical disabilities.
