language
Use of strong language ('f**k') is accompanied by moderate ('slut', 'prick') and milder terms such as 'dick', 'crap', 'shit', 'Jesus' and 'Christ'.
sexual violence and sexual threat
Verbal references are made to an elected politician sexually assaulting underage teenage girls by masturbating in front of them. A woman becomes tearful as she recalls the fear she felt during the assault.
additional issues
Unpleasant characters display homophobic behaviour and use homophobic language such as 'shirtlifter' and 'mincing around'. There is also use of the word 'queer' in a non discriminatory context. Homophobia is clearly condemned by the work as a whole. There are occasional moderate sex references and scenes of mild sex. Infrequent verbal references are made to domestic abuse. Characters are threatened with violence and slapped around the face. A woman struggles to integrate back into normal life after suffering a brain injury during a vehicle accident. References are made to substance addiction, grief, alcoholism and mental health issues.
