violence
There is moderate violence in chaotic fights between teenage boys at a reform school, with undetailed punches and kicks delivered, as well as a boy being sprayed with the contents of a fire extinguisher.
language
Occasional very strong language ('c**t') and frequent strong language ('f**k') is accompanied by milder terms such as 'bitch', 'prick'. 'dick', 'slag', 'dickhead', 'wanker', 'knobhead' and 'ponce'. There are also rude middle finger and masturbation gestures.
sex
There is a passing comic reference to bestiality. A teenager reflects on the things he misses by being in reform school, which includes 'pussy'.
discrimination
A Black teenager uses the discriminatory term 'jungle bunny' about himself and others with the same racial identity. Use of the homophobic term 'poof' is challenged.
drugs
A man in a vulnerable state misuses prescription medication. There is brief joint smoking, as well as verbal references to cocaine, 'weed' and 'shrooms'.
sexual violence and sexual threat
A teenage boy in reform school is challenged over his sexually inappropriate behaviour towards a female member of staff.
suicide and self-harm
A teenage boy makes preparations to take his own life; however, there is a reassuring outcome.
theme
Moderate upsetting scenes are centred on a teenage boy's abandonment by his parents, a man's guilt over a fatality and mental health issues.
alcohol and smoking
There are references to alcohol dependency.
