The Tower

The film does not focus on LGBTQ+ identities or same-sex relationships. It maintains a neutral stance regarding sexual orientation.

The film centers on Wardi’s emotional journey, avoiding traditional masculine hero archetypes. However, adult characters are mostly involved in domestic routines rather than transformative gender stories.

The film highlights a Palestinian protagonist and connects a Norwegian present with a displaced past. This approach gives significant importance to a historically underrepresented identity.

The film explores post-colonial themes and systemic displacement, emphasizing ancestral connections and subjective truths over dominant Western narratives.

There is no significant focus on physical or neurodivergent representation. The story prioritizes the psychological and cultural dimensions of the protagonist's experience instead.
