violence
In an unsettling scene, a woman is manhandled, strangled and her head is slammed repeatedly against a door, resulting in bloody injury. Two men fight and one of them is left helpless on the ground, with the other man delivering a series of hard kicks to his body. There are verbal references to murder.
threat and horror
There is moderate gun threat, as well as scenes in which people are verbally intimidated. A man is struck by a car, but is not seriously hurt. A man is knocked unconscious and falls into water which sweeps him away.
language
Infrequent strong language ('f**k') features, as well as milder terms such as 'bullshit', 'crap', 'damn' and 'hell'.
sex
Strong sex features nudity and thrusting. As they travel in a car, a man runs his hand up a younger woman's inner thigh towards her crotch, but then quickly removes it.
sexual violence and sexual threat
A man gropes a woman's breast without her consent.
injury detail
There are strong bloody images in the aftermath of violence, including close up shots of a wound in an animal being opened up in order to extract the bullet that killed it. A dead body is seen in a morgue, with bruising and other injuries.
nudity
Sexualised nudity features shots of breasts and buttocks. There is also non-sexualised nudity when images of a corpse are briefly shown.
theme
Disturbing and upsetting scenes are centred on a person's psychological unravelling, as well as bereavement.
alcohol and smoking
Adults consume alcohol to occasional excess, and smoke.
