violence
Sustained, fast-moving and chaotic scenes of violence feature riot police engaging aggressive mobs with baton charges and tear gas, and the use of firearms, flash grenades and improvised weapons such as petrol bombs. A man’s face is battered with repeated blows which land off-screen. A man preparing to throw a petrol bomb is shot and engulfed in flames. Another man is shot in the leg. There is occasional moderate injury, as well as brief, undetailed sight of a dead body in the aftermath of a shooting. A man pulls his female partner’s hair and shouts angrily at her.
threat and horror
There is strong, intense threat as people are held at gunpoint and beg for their lives, or are chased by angry mobs, or are caught up in chaotic rioting in which they take no active part.
language
There is strong language ('f**k', 'motherf**ker'), as well as milder terms such as 'bitch', 'putain', 'bastard', 'shit', 'piss', 'dickhead' and 'hell'. There are also rude middle finger gestures.
There are infrequent drug references in the context of a character’s cocaine dealing activities. There are infrequent moderate sex references. There are moderate upsetting scenes.
