Rites of Spring

The film centers on a traditional kidnapping and survival horror storyline without any representation of non-binary or LGBTQ+ identities or relationships.

Women in the film primarily face physical danger and are portrayed as victims. Rachel Adams shows some initiative but the narrative upholds traditional hierarchies of predator and prey.

The cast follows a conventional ensemble structure without clear evidence of diverse racial backgrounds or multi-layered casting.

The plot revolves around ritualistic rites and a ransom scheme, operating within typical thriller clichés without challenging systemic or religious institutions.

The characters are defined by their roles in the kidnapping plot. There is no depiction of individuals with visible or invisible disabilities or neurodivergent traits.
