The story centers on a heteronormative romantic bond between Souad and Malam. While it lacks explicit queer characters, the absence of traditional gendered tropes prevents a lower score.

Souad serves as the narrative's emotional and metaphysical anchor, disrupting traditional hierarchies. The film prioritizes female resilience against systemic economic exploitation and patriarchal labor structures.

The film provides exceptional representation by centering a Black Senegalese cast in Dakar. It avoids the Western gaze, presenting African life and migration through an authentic, internal lens.

The narrative uses a post-colonial framework to critique capitalist exploitation. It embraces local metaphysical truths, using the supernatural to provide justice where formal institutions fail.

There is insufficient evidence of characters with specific physical or neurodivergent disabilities to assign a definitive score.
