The film's setting in the Yucatán introduces a more diverse perspective compared to typical Western narratives. By focusing on indigenous contexts, it moves away from purely Western-centric storytelling. However, the Western genre often emphasizes traditional gender roles and social hierarchies. Without clear subversion of these norms, the film leans on familiar clichés that may limit its progressive impact.
