Machante Malakha

A man slaps his wife across the face and women display controlling and coercive behaviours towards their husbands, such as checking their phone messages and not letting them go out with friends. There are also verbal references to domestic abuse. Brief moments of mild violence also occur.

Moments of mild threat include a bull knocking a woman down a well and a man poised to chop the head from a chicken. In the aftermath of a bus crash, people are rushed to hospital.

Mild bad language (‘shit') is accompanied by very mild terms such as ‘damn’, ‘God’ and ‘hell’.

People are accused of adultery and a man is told that he has failed to satisfy his wife sexually.

There is a light-hearted sequence in which a woman has blood on her hands and clothing after slaughtering chickens off screen.

Undetailed references are made to a man taking his own life.

Upsetting scenes stem from bereavement and marital difficulties.

People appear inebriated and references are made to alcoholism.
