Roald Dahl's The Witches

The story focuses on a traditional relationship between a grandson and his grandmother. There is no visible representation of non-straight or non-cisgender identities, nor does it explore themes related to the assumption that everyone is straight or cisgender.

The film challenges traditional gender roles by centering a powerful female character. The grandmother plays a significant role in guiding the story, while the antagonist is a group of strong women.

The film features a diverse cast of actors, including Awkwafina, which adds to the multicultural atmosphere of the seaside resort setting.

The movie follows a traditional moral storyline of good versus evil without questioning Western institutions or religious traditions.

Themes of physical change and vulnerability are central to the fantasy conflict. However, these elements are used primarily as plot devices rather than exploring the lived experiences of those with disabilities.
