threat and horror
There is a moderate sense of threat throughout as the young characters avoid being attacked and killed by other characters. There are also scenes in which characters are threatened and attacked by fantasy animal creatures, some of which resemble wolves. There is an emphasis on the resourcefulness and ingenuity of the central characters as they struggle to survive.
