Question 1

Is Anora woke?

Accepted Answer

Anora has a woke score of 39/100, which means it is not especially woke compared with higher-scoring titles. The movie keeps showing sex work as just a job for the tough Brooklyn lead character the whole way through. Class power from the rich Russian oligarch family crushes her impulsive marriage and fairytale. Minor lesbian character appears at the strip club. No activist dialogue or identity sermons but the class clashes and sex worker focus drive the narrative engine.

Question 2

Is there DEI in Anora?

Accepted Answer

The biggest factors in our score are Creator track record context, Representation / casting choices, Identity-driven story themes. A young sex worker from Brooklyn gets her chance at a Cinderella story when she meets and impulsively marries the son of an oligarch. Once the news reaches Russia, her fairytale is threatened as his parents set out to get the marriage annulled.
