Number 24 is a traditional historical biography that emphasizes nationalistic narrative and individual heroism. The film's structure revolves around preserving national identity and resisting an external oppressive force. While the film showcases the protagonist's resistance against tyranny, it adheres to a conventional wartime drama framework. It lacks the complexity of intersecting identities or the subversion of traditional social norms, which would be necessary for a higher progressive score. Ultimately, the film focuses on the specific demographic and historical context of the Norwegian resistance, resulting in a narrow representation of identity.
