Strong language ('f**k', 'motherf**ker', 'c**ksucker') occurs, as well as milder terms ('pussy', 'shit', 'bullshit', 'arse', 'bloody', 'God', 'Jesus', 'damn', 'hell').
sex

discrimination

suicide and self-harm
There is partial sight of a person's dead body in the aftermath of an off-screen suicide. There are also verbal references to suicide.
