- additional issues
- Interviews with LGBTQ black people feature frequent verbal references to their experiences of historical racism, homophobia and transphobia, including aggressive and violent racism. Discriminatory terms include 'n****r', 'wog', 'poof' and 'batty man'. The film does not endorse discriminatory behaviour. A brief reference to suicide occurs when a man talks about the loneliness of being both black and gay as a teenager in the 80s and says that he believed at the time that the only way out was to kill himself. There are verbal references to people in a club smoking marijuana.
