A man is attacked and killed with a bayonet, resulting in strong bloody detail. There are also multiple bloody shootings and scenes of threat when a sniper opens fire on police, with frightened civilians nearby.
injury detail
There are occasional strong images of a bloody crime scene.
nudity
A couple, both of whom are naked below the waist, kiss and embrace on a bed while their toddler plays nearby. There are further scenes of non-sexualised nudity, including one in which a father washes faeces from his infant son’s buttocks.
flashing/flickering lights
This work contains flashing images which may affect viewers who are susceptible to photosensitive epilepsy.
There is infrequent use of strong language (‘f**k’); milder terms include ‘cock’, ‘bullshit’, ‘bastard’, ‘bloody’, ‘son of a bitch’, ‘ass’ and ‘crap’, in addition to a casual use of the term ‘loony bin’. There are moderate scenes of threat, and infrequent moderate drug references. There is also a brief verbal reference to suicide.
