violence
A woman scratches and kicks her partner, and there are allusions to further abuse which occurs off-screen. Other violence includes people occasionally striking others, and a woman pushing another to the ground.
language
Very strong language (‘c**t’) is used infrequently. There is also frequent use of strong language (‘f**k’) as well as milder terms such as ‘shit’, ‘crap’, ‘piss’, ‘bollocks’, ‘arse’, ‘hell’, and ‘God’.
sex
Moderate sex references include the sight of a lewd album cover, and scenes in which couples kiss and undress before it is implied they have sex.
discrimination
Homophobic remarks are made in the lyrics of a song.
drugs
Crack is seen being smoked, and a man snorts cocaine. A person discovers a bag of marijuana in a woman’s flat, and reprimands her about it. There are verbal references to drugs including ecstasy.
suicide and self-harm
A man briefly discusses his past experience of self-harm, but gives little detail.
injury detail
A man's face sports cuts as a result of violence. A woman's head is bloody after she falls down.
nudity
Breast and buttock nudity are occasionally visible, including in a scene in which a couple swims naked in a pool.
theme
There are suggestions that a person has an eating disorder, and occasional references to mental health issues including depression. A woman reveals she has been diagnosed with cancer and later passes away.
alcohol and smoking
A person abuses alcohol and is seen behaving drunkenly throughout the film. There is also pervasive smoking throughout.
