The documentary focuses on the historical realities of the Nazi occupation and the legal pursuit of Klaus Barbie. There is no discernible focus on LGBTQ+ identities or non-cisnormative narratives within this investigative framework.

The film disrupts patriarchal historical narratives by centering testimonies from female survivors and the French Resistance. It documents the specific vulnerabilities and agency of women during wartime survival.

Significant agency is given to marginalized voices, specifically Jewish survivors of the Holocaust. The narrative shifts focus from state actors toward the lived experiences of victims of systemic ethnic persecution.

The film excels in critiquing traditional Western institutions and the 'myth of the Resistance.' It portrays the French state as an entity characterized by complicity and systemic failure.

Depictions of physical and psychological trauma illustrate the scale of Barbie's atrocities. However, these are not used to explore disability as an independent identity with agency.
