violence
Sequences of strong and at times sadistic violence include people being repeatedly stabbed, decapitated, choked, beaten, slashed with knives and shot resulting in blood spurts and bloody aftermath detail. A man's hand is bloodily sliced off and another's leg is severed offscreen with blood spurting all over his attackers. A woman's head is repeatedly slammed on a table and her throat slowly cut.
threat and horror
A violent gang of criminals orchestrate bus and car crashes in order to rob the injured passengers of their money and jewellery. They are seen ruthlessly ripping necklaces and bracelets from unconscious and bloodied characters as they lay dying on the ground. Armed gangsters frequently target and threaten a woman and her elderly family. Scenes also include frequent knife threat as well as car chases and crashes.
language
Infrequent use of strong language ('f**k') is accompanied by moderate ('slut', 'whore') and milder terms such as 'bastard', 'God' and 'damn'.
sex
References are made to a man's mother working as a sex worker in a brothel in order to support him when he was a child.
sexual violence and sexual threat
In the backseat of a car, an older man starts touching a schoolgirl's leg in a sexually threatening manner and proceeds to launch himself onto her. She manages to escape by throwing herself out of the moving car and there are subsequent references to him molesting other young girls in the past.
suicide and self-harm
A tearful son briefly describes how his mother took her own life and we later see the aftermath of her suicide.
injury detail
Violence is frequently accompanied by bloody injuries. In one scene, a man brutally decapitates his adversary and holds up his severed head in the air. Another man uses a small knife to bloodily cut off his own fingers and a character has his hand sliced off with a bladed weapon. There is sight of severed limbs positioned threateningly by the side of the road.
