5000 BLANKETS is a drama, based on true events, in which a man's wife and young son launch a non-profit organisation distributing blankets to the homselff after he has a mental breakdown and leaves the family home.
injury detail
In one scene, a man cuts his hand after trying to climb a fence, and there is brief close-up sight of the wound. However, the scene is darkly lit and, accordingly, there is limited injury detail. In another scene, a woman is shown a dead man's face in a mortuary in the belief that it might be her husband.
theme
There are several references to mental health, and these include scenes in which a man experiences hallucinations. In a prolonged scene, the man stands on a rooftop at work whilst contemplating suicide. His wife talks him down; however, he subsequently fights off a male colleague and throws him to the ground. The film's overall treatment of mental health is sensitive and also shows how positive outcomes can be achieved from adversity. The man's young son is bullied at school, and these include verbal taunts and a physical altercation in which the son punches his bully in the face, and which causes a nosebleed. Bullying is clearly not condoned, and neither is the boy's violent response to the provocation.
additional issues
There are also several scenes of emotional upset, some of which relate to a man's mental health and disappearance, whilst others concern the plight of homeless people.There is also mild bad language ('frig', 'crap').
