FIREWORKS is an Italian drama in which a two young men explore a growing attraction despite small town prejudice in 1982 Sicily.
language
There is use of strong language (‘f**k’) as well as the use of milder terms including ‘son of a bitch’, ‘ass’, ‘shit’, ‘balls’, ‘crap’, ‘God’ and ‘damn’.
discrimination
A person is attacked and beaten up in public when people learn of his sexuality, and there is the use of homophobic terms including ‘faggot’ and ‘fairy’. Such discrimination is contextualised as historical and is clearly challenged by the film as a whole.
additional issues
Two men slap and punch a third, then kick him repeatedly when he falls to the ground. A teen is repeatedly slapped by his father in anger. A man backs another into a corner, grabbing his head and trying to work him into a sexual act, though the victim escapes quickly and the sense of sexual threat is brief. There are moderate sex references, including when a man is propositioned by a sex worker, and when a person references fellatio. Bullies chase a person on a moped, jeering and goading their victim to crash his vehicle. A man collapses from an asthma attack, but recovers. A bruise is seen on a person's back following violence. A passing reference is made to suicide, without realistic detail. People smoke cigarettes throughout.
