violence
In one scene, a woman is thrown to the floor by a man, after which they wrestle on the floor. The man subsequently attempts to throttle another man and dangles him out of a window. There are also some verbal references to murder and dismemberment, including speculation about where a body might have been 'cut up', as well as scenes in which screaming is heard.
additional issues
There are also some mild sexual scenes and references, including sight of a man being beaten off by a woman when he attempts to kiss her and references to a man staying overnight with a woman. There are some shots in which a woman is overseen exercising in her underwear, with brief implied nudity. The fact she is being spied upon by a man voyeuristically adds a mild level of sexualisation to the images.
