violence
A knife-wielding masked man attacks frightened people in a public place; there are brief images of blood on the knife but no clear sight of the blade making contact with anyone. In the chaos, a young child is glimpsed falling over the side of a bridge, but we do not see the aftermath.
threat and horror
There are scenes of moderate threat, including a short and visually discreet scene in which frightened people are attacked in a public place by a man wielding a knife.
language
There is use of strong language (‘f**k’). Milder terms include ‘shit’, ‘ass’, ‘piss’ and ‘bastard’.
sex
There are infrequent mild sex references.
sexual violence and sexual threat
References to child sexual abuse occur during a short film in which a mother procures an abortion for her pre-teen daughter; a flashback shows a police officer placing blood-stained underwear into an evidence bag while another attends the girl, who appears to be in shock following an off-screen attack. The references are otherwise discreet, and the subject is handled in an empathetic and sensitive manner.
suicide and self-harm
There are scenes of suicide, although the visual detail is limited.
theme
There are upsetting scenes involving death and bereavement. Other issues include non-graphic scenes concerning an off-screen abortion.
flashing/flickering lights
This work contains flashing images which may affect viewers who are susceptible to photosensitive epilepsy.
