sex
There are scenes of strong sex and sexual activity. There are additionally strong sex references, as well as sexualised full frontal male and female nudity.
additional issues
This work contains flashing images which may affect viewers who are susceptible to photosensitive epilepsy. People display aggressive transphobia towards a transgender woman, including her ex-partner who verbally and physically assaults her. A gang aggressively drag a transgender woman away, pull at her clothing and violently beat her. Discrimination is not condoned by the work as a whole. Scenes of suicide occur and there are references to suicidal ideation. References are also made to domestic abuse. There is a detailed and prolonged sequence in which real dead cows are bloodily and gorily skinned and butchered in an abattoir. Infrequent use of very strong language ('c**t') is accompanied by milder terms such as 'whore', 'dick', 'cock', 'screw' 'crap', 'ass' and 'God'. A woman has bruising to her face in the aftermath of violence. Upsetting scenes occur due to depression and a person's struggle to come to terms with their gender identity.
