Brexit: The Movie is a political argument that prioritizes national sovereignty and the critique of supranational governance over identity-based storytelling. Its narrative structure challenges the legitimacy of the European Union, presenting it as a distant bureaucracy that undermines local democratic control. Since the film focuses on reclaiming domestic control and protecting traditional statehood, it operates against progressive frameworks like the way different parts of someone's identity overlap. The lack of diverse representation is a result of its emphasis on legal and political autonomy. Overall, the work aims to strengthen the traditional boundaries of the nation-state. It does not engage with post-colonialism or queer theory, resulting in limited engagement with progressive media inclusion.
Category Breakdown
The film does not include any stories or characters that represent LGBTQ+ identities or experiences. The focus on geopolitical issues means there is almost no representation of queer individuals or communities.
The documentary includes both male and female commentators in a typical ratio. However, the story does not challenge traditional gender roles or use gender as a tool for social critique.
The film centers on an Anglo-centric idea of national sovereignty. It does not use diverse casting or consider multiple aspects of identity to support its political message.
The movie emphasizes traditional Western institutions and the importance of the nation-state. It prioritizes national self-determination over postmodern critiques of borders or anti-Western viewpoints.
There is no intentional representation of neurodivergence, physical disabilities, or mental health issues. The film uses socioeconomic status to drive its narrative rather than focusing on disability.

Official Synopsis
A feature-length documentary to show why Britain should vote to LEAVE the EU - and would thrive outside of it. Brexit: The Movie spells out the danger of staying part of the EU. Is it safe to give a remote government beyond our control the power to make laws? Is it safe to tie ourselves to countries which are close to financial ruin, drifting towards scary political extremism, and suffering long-term, self-inflicted economic decline?
