The film presents a clearly feminist message, in which it is the women who must resolve all conflicts and even save the lives of their male counterparts. This dynamic continually challenges the expectations of fans of traditionally male westerns.
But this idea of breaking with traditional storytelling is not limited to that, and is reinforced with other really interesting elements.
From the introduction of some characters with a level of detail that makes us think they will be protagonists or key elements of the plot, and who are gunned down a few minutes after meeting them (I think of the protagonist's brother and the soldier who escorts her at the beginning of the film, with whom a certain sexual tension is established), to the total absence of punishment for the villains of the film. Even a lead mine robbery is promised, which occupies not a few scenes, but ultimately never takes place.
