SUNSET SONG is a coming of age story about the daughter of a Scottish farmer and a family struggling to survive and torn apart by tragedy in the early 1900s.

violence
A scene of sexual violence shows a naked man aggressively grabbing his wife from behind, against her will, as she struggles to get away from him. The film also includes the lashing of a man's back with a leather belt and sight of bloody lash marks.
sex
Sex is strongly implied by very loud and rhythmic grunting noises as a man apparently reaches orgasm. Although nothing is seen, it is a lengthy sequence that lacks discretion; it is further reinforced by dialogue.
additional issues
Occasional use of moderate bad language ('bitch'), as well as milder terms, including 'bloody', 'bastards' and 'Christ'. There is full frontal female nudity and rear male nudity. A doctor is shown with bloody hands and arms during a childbirth sequence, as the mother cries in agony. There is also an undetailed reference to a mother committing suicide and infanticide by poisoning.
