National Theatre Live: Inter Alia

There are brief verbal references to the details of a court case involving domestic violence.

There is use of strong language (‘f**k’). Milder terms include ‘bitch’, ‘shit’, ‘arse’ and ‘tits’, in addition to use of the ‘middle finger’ gesture.

Occasional strong sex references include verbal references to sexual acts, genitals, arousal, orgasms and pornography, as well as brief but graphic sounds of a pornographic video being played off-screen. A woman uses frank language and illustrative moaning to describe having sex with her husband.

There are occasional critical references to sexist attitudes and behaviour.

Passing verbal references are made to marijuana misuse and drug dealing.

There are references to rape and sexually abusive behaviour. In one scene, we hear the sound of video footage of a sexual assault being played off screen. In another, a person describes having struggled with upsetting intrusive thoughts about a rape case while attempting to have sex. Other sequences feature references to sexist 'rape myths' and victim-blaming behaviour, which are clearly criticised. References to hypothetical child sexual abuse also occur.

A scene contains undetailed verbal references to a person possibly being at risk of self-harm.

The play's challenging themes give rise to scenes of fraught emotion and heated family arguments.

Verbal references are made to young adults drinking alcohol to the point of passing out.
