People (2016) is a modular character study using six vignettes to explore interpersonal dynamics. While the vignette structure allows for varied identity exploration, the film lacks a central protagonist to drive a systemic critique. The film's strongest point is its racially diverse cast, featuring actors from different ethnic backgrounds. However, this diversity is not matched by depth in other multi-layered categories. Overall, the film presents as a typical dramatic work. It lacks the thematic complexity or specific narrative focus needed to address gender, disability, or LGBTQ+ identities effectively.
