violence
There is a frenzied, bloody stabbing. A woman's stomach is impaled by a pole on the edge of a mechanical door as it closes. Characters punch and shove one another. A man is engulfed by flames but there is little visual detail of this. It is implied a woman was the victim of domestic abuse as a child, at the hands of her alcoholic mother.
threat and horror
Characters desperately try to stay awake, fearing they will die if they do not. Some have disturbing visions of past events or see visions of bloody faces and dead people. A man is bound and threatened with violence. There is gun and knife threat. A woman experiences intense claustrophobia in confined spaces, such as an MRI scanner. A mouse is placed into a guillotine and the handle is pulled down but we do not see the blade cut it.
language
There is strong language ('f**k') along with milder terms which include 'shit', 'God', 'damn' and 'Jesus'.
drugs
There are verbal references to the use of amphetamines and other 'uppers' and it is suggested characters may be using such drugs.
self-harm
A woman intentionally burns her hand on a stove to help her stay awake.
injury detail
There are large blood spurts and splashes over clothing and surroundings in the aftermath of violence and after a mechanical door pierces and partly crushes a character. People bleed profusely from their eyes and nose as a result of fatal medical episodes.
theme
There are references to terminal illness and palliative care, relating to a woman's liver condition; it is implied this is the result of alcoholism.
