drugs
The film's central subject is the traditional use of khat, a plant with stimulant properties which is consumed in various forms. The use of khat, as well as its trade, is legal in Ethiopia although it is a proscribed drug in the UK. References are made to some of the negative aspects of the use of khat, such as its effects on behaviour. The work as a whole, whilst observing its place in Ethiopian custom and tradition, does not present an unquestioning or overtly promotional portrait of the use of khat. There are also sequences in which people smoke cigarettes.
additional issues
There are undetailed references to violence in the context of social unrest. There is brief natural child nudity.
