RASHOMON is a Japanese drama in which the events of a crime are recalled from multiple different perspectives.
threat and horror
Occasional scenes of moderate threat occur during encounters between men armed with swords, and when a woman tries to escape and harm an attacker. In another scene, a medium appears to become possessed by the spirit of a dead man.
language
There is use of moderate bad language ('whore') and milder terms ('hell').
suicide and self-harm
There are visual and verbal references to suicide, including a woman explaining her intention to take her own life, and a suggestion that a male character does so.
sexual violence and sexual threat
There are references to sexual violence, including to the woman being 'abused' and men 'taking advantage' of her. The rape itself occurs off screen, and is implied through sight of a man forcefully kissing a woman.
additional issues
There is mild violence in which men fight with swords, and when a man slaps another around the head. A man comments on how two parents enjoyed making a baby. There are examples of historical sexism, which is implicitly condemned.
