violence
Strong violence features heavy beatings, eye-gouging and the forcible injecting of a person with what is implied to be heroin, leaving them in a vulnerable state. Moments of domestic abuse include a young woman attacking her mother and a man intimidating his female partner.
threat and horror
Arguments between family members lead to unsettling threatening behaviour. A woman imagines she is being smothered by her bed linen, and animals are placed in dangerous predicaments.
language
There is infrequent very strong language ('c**t') and more frequent use of strong language ('f**k'). There is also use of milder terms such as 'skank', 'bitch', ‘dick’, ‘jerk-off’, 'asshole', 'tits’ and ‘shit’, as well as rude middle finger gestures.
sex
Moderate sex references include comments about ‘dick pics’, as well as sexual moaning.
discrimination
There is a jokey and self-referential use of the term ‘lesbo’.
drugs
References to drug misuse, including to dealing, addiction and overdosing, carry clearly aversive messaging.
sexual violence and sexual threat
A woman is made uncomfortable and frightened by the sinister behaviour of a man who touches her hair, uses endearments and says he believes she has eyes for him.
injury detail
There are brief images of the water-damaged and partly decomposed face of a corpse. There is infrequent bloody injury in the aftermath of violence.
theme
Upsetting scenes are centred on intense discord between family members, as well as bereavement.
