SAYEN is a Chilean action drama in which a young Mapuche woman fights back against dangerous mercenaries after uncovering a conspiracy to exploit Indigenous lands.

violence
People are shot, occasionally creating spurts of blood. Moderate action violence includes stabbings, crunchy blows and brief sequences of strangulation. We also see police violently restraining and arresting Indigenous protesters.
language
There is use of strong language (‘motherf**ker’, ‘f**k’, ‘joder’). Milder terms include ‘puto’, ‘bitch’, ‘shit’, ‘bastard’, ‘ass’, ‘asshole’, ‘pissed’, ‘balls’, ‘son of a bitch’ and ‘crap’. There is also infrequent use of discriminatory language (e.g. ‘maricón’) by unlikeable characters.
injury detail
There is a bloody slash wound on a man’s throat after an off-screen murder, and there is a close-up image of blood on a dead woman’s face after she is deliberately knocked off her vehicle during a motorcycle chase. In another scene a woman is shown resetting her own dislocated shoulder and treating a small wound on her arm, all without strong detail.
additional issues
There are moderate scenes of threat, including tense chase sequences. In a short scene of sexual threat, a man strokes a female captive’s face and hair and sniffs her neck; she responds by biting him. There are references to white colonial exploitation of Indigenous communities and the theft of Indigenous lands, but this is clearly criticised. In another scene, a man initially refuses to train a girl as a Mapuche warrior on account of her gender, but he changes his mind after she proves her abilities. Other issues include infrequent references to drug misuse, which is not condoned, and a passing undetailed reference to suicide.
