strong language, bloody images
violence
In the aftermath of some violence between rivals gangs, a couple of dead bodies are found with blood covering their skin and clothes, as well as sprayed up the walls nearby. A girl is also stabbed in the stomach, with the impact hidden from view, but both her and the attacker are left covered in blood. A boy is also struck across the face with a brick.
language
There are multiple uses of strong language ('motherf**ker' and 'f**k'). Other bad language includes 'prick', 'bitch', 'bullshit', 'asshole', 'shit', 'crap' and 'damn'.
additional issues
Other issues include some sex references with boys briefly referring to pornography. One boy opens a pin-up magazine to look at the centrefold and there is brief sight of a woman's bare breast.
