New Showbiz Analysis

Seasons is a nature documentary that emphasizes the intrinsic value of the natural world over human-centric stories. By focusing on the unmediated cycles of animals like wild horses and wolves, the film shifts the focus away from human dominance towards ecological interconnectedness. Since the film avoids depicting human social structures, it lacks any representation of gender, race, or LGBTQ+ identities. However, it achieves a moderate cultural score through its philosophical approach, which subtly critiques human-imposed structures by showcasing the beauty of the natural landscape.
