injury detail
Strong bloody images include those of a person lying in a pool of blood after an off-screen traffic accident and of a spirit with blood on her clothes and face.
theme
A teenager is emotionally abused by her parents over the course of several scenes, and at one point we see her father slap her. In other scenes a grieving woman neglects to care for herself and her toddler. A student teacher bonds with a vulnerable teenager and later marries her; whilst proposing, he confesses that he’s been in love with her since she was a junior high school student, prompting her to ask him if he has a ‘Lolita complex’.
There are scenes of bereavement and emotional upset, such as one in which a woman imagines seeing her late husband in the sea and prepares to jump in to join him. Bad language includes ‘bitching’, ‘shit’, ‘ass’, ‘piss’ and ‘crap’. Other issues include infrequent mild sex references.
