Butler's theory of gender performativity emphasises the way in which gender roles are performed subconsciously and repetitively in society, and that gender is made from an individuals performance, or lack of performance, in these gender roles. Through the performance of these stereotypes, whether feminine or masculine, gender roles are naturalised even more, and people that fail to perform these binary norms create "gender trouble" and subvert ideas of heteronormativity. Butler's theory deconstructs gender roles and challenges stereotypes.

Lupin - age

Assane - in 40s, still modern and resourceful with his methods and strategies, but has old-fashioned gentlemanly morals and ideals with his way of dressing and talking. 

Assane's dad - older generation, emphasises historical divide between France in the 70s and how minority groups were treated. Also emphasises vulnerability due to older age.

Loan sharks - all quite young, might be used to emphasise naivety and incompetence amongst younger generation with their mistakes during the heist

Lupin - history and culture

- Racism and class divide, e.g loan sharks and assane and his father vs pelegrinis

Lupin - history and culture
