About Alex

The film delves into old crushes and resentments but doesn't provide clear examples of LGBTQ individuals taking charge of their lives. It also doesn't show any non-binary or transgender characters or challenge the assumption that everyone is straight or cisgender.

The film focuses on the dysfunction and instability of adult relationships rather than reinforcing traditional gender roles. It centers on the breakdown of relationships rather than typical family structures.

The story seems to focus on a small group of people with a typical demographic makeup, without showing a predominantly non-white cast or challenging Anglo-centric norms.

The story prioritizes psychological realism over traditional social stability. It deconstructs social facades and moralities by framing the conflict around a suicide attempt and subsequent resentments.

The central suicide attempt provides a platform to explore mental health and invisible disabilities. This allows for a nuanced look at neurodivergence and psychological crises.
