violence
Knife violence results in blood spurts and bloody aftermath detail. Occasional fight scenes feature crunchy blows and use of improvised weapons such as bottles and metal poles. A woman repeatedly strikes her adult daughter; another scene implies that a woman has taken her own life due to off-screen spousal abuse.
threat and horror
There are sustained scenes of threat and suspense involving the kidnapping and attempted murder of infants, as well as scenes of knife threat.
language
Bad language includes ‘piss’, ‘bloody’, ‘damn’, ‘Jesus’, ‘hell’ and ‘God’.
sex
A musical interlude features mildly suggestive dance moves.
discrimination
There are occasional scenes of mental health discrimination.
drugs
A drug addict is repeatedly shown smoking marijuana and behaving in a highly intoxicated manner before eventually recovering from his addiction. Other scenes contain verbal references to drug misuse.
sexual violence and sexual threat
A brief, undetailed reference is made to children being trafficked for the purpose of sexual abuse. A short flashback sequence shows a female nurse reacting with shock and anger when a male patient puts his hand on her waist.
suicide and self-harm
It is discreetly implied that a character has taken their own life off-screen.
injury detail
Dead bodies are seen lying in pools of blood in the aftermath of violence. A murdered infant is discovered at a crime scene, although only the baby’s legs are visible on screen. A person’s arm is impaled by a piece of sharp metal during an action scene. Bloody detail also features in the aftermath of a traffic collision.
theme
Sustained scenes show a couple in various states of panic and distress following the kidnapping of their newborn baby. Other scenes depict people grieving over the deaths of loved ones.
alcohol and smoking
There are scenes of heavy drinking and drunken behaviour. In one scene, a man who is recovering from a substance abuse problem is restrained by villains who pour alcohol into his mouth.
flashing/flickering lights
This work contains flashing images which may affect viewers who are susceptible to photosensitive epilepsy.
