While We Live

The film does not provide any direct indication of the sexual orientations or gender identities of its characters. It does not include characters with non-straight relationships or identities.

The narrative follows a traditional dramatic structure without challenging typical gender roles. Women do not hold positions of greater influence or disrupt traditional masculine archetypes.

Set in Northern Denmark, the film focuses on four individuals but does not specify their ethnic backgrounds. There are no characters from non-Anglo-Saxon backgrounds or instances of race-bent casting.

The drama explores the human condition through intertwined fates but does not present a clear anti-Western or secularist stance. Traditional institutions like family and religion are not portrayed as oppressive.

A central tragic accident may lead to physical or neurological changes for the characters. However, it is unclear whether these disabilities are portrayed with meaningful impact or merely as plot devices.
