The film uses international casting to create a global perspective. The diverse cast is the strongest asset in terms of representation. However, the narrative depth regarding specific identities remains unclear. While the fragmented reality theme offers potential for exploring neurodivergence or non-traditional perceptions, the film lacks concrete evidence of character-driven ability to act in these areas. Ultimately, the film presents a moderate level of diversity but lacks specific thematic markers for higher scores in identity-based categories.
Category Breakdown

How racially and ethnically diverse is Madness?
