The narrative structure revolves around the blurring lines between hallucination and reality, rather than exploring identity. The film adheres to traditional genre conventions, focusing on a small, isolated group of characters. It does not engage with systemic power dynamics or provide a platform for diverse cultural or identity-based storytelling.
