Selfie is a socio-political satire that emphasizes the deconstruction of class privilege over identity-based issues. The story revolves around a protagonist navigating the loss of systemic advantages due to a family corruption scandal. The film's main impact lies in its cultural critique of institutional corruption and capitalism. It effectively highlights the fragility of inherited status and traditional meritocracy. However, the film lacks depth in other diversity metrics, such as racial and LGBTQ+ representation.
