SPY HIGH is a US documentary series; in this episode, a teenage boy's life is turned upside down when photos are revealed to have been procured by his school using the boy's laptop webcam.
language
There is infrequent use of very strong language ('c**t'), more frequent use of strong language ('f**k') and milder terms ('bitch', 'prick', 'shit', 'piss', 'ass', 'freaking', 'God', 'hell' and 'damn'). Two finger rude gestures also feature.
sexual violence and sexual threat
References are made to a school unlawfully spying on its teenage pupils through their laptop webcams and to the possibility of them taking images of the students in a state of undress or in sexual situations. Further references are made to this being akin to child sexual abuse.
additional issues
There are verbal references to 'pill popping' and to a teenager selling drugs; a pixelated webcam image is thought to show a teen holding up a yellow pill to the camera. A woman recalls receiving hate from her peers, including being called a 'c**t'.
