Halina Bielińska’s film presents a unique historical fantasy with a female protagonist set in 1880s Warsaw. By focusing on a girl in this historical context, the narrative deviates from the usual male-centric historical epics of the era. Although the film highlights a female perspective, it does not provide clear examples of characters reflecting multiple aspects of diversity. The story seems to hinge on the contrast between contemporary viewpoints and the strict social structures of the 19th century. Overall, the film lacks clear evidence of LGBTQ+ representation or specific inclusion of characters with disabilities, resulting in a traditional narrative despite its female-centric approach.
