violence
Scenes of domestic abuse feature acts of violence including slapping and people being thrown roughly to the ground, as well as threatening, abusive language. A person strikes another with an axe, and in other sequences guns are heard being fired and a person punches another.
additional issues
Following a violent act, a man is seen lying dead, a patch of blood around his head on the ground. There is implied use of a discriminative term (‘retard’), however discrimination is not condoned by the film as a whole. There is use of mild bad language ('crap', 'friggin') as well as milder terms such as 'God', 'damn', 'Jesus', and 'hell'. A couple embraces on a bed before it is implied they have sex off-screen. There are references to a person's mental health, which leads to them being institutionalised. There is a reference to suicide.
