My Culture explores the interpersonal friction arising from an interracial relationship between a Black man and a Hispanic woman. The central conflict stems from familial disapproval, emphasizing the tension between personal autonomy and traditional ethnic expectations. While the film successfully centers multi-ethnic identities, it lacks depth in representing LGBTQ+ identities and characters with disabilities. It also does not sufficiently address challenges to traditional gender roles.
