THE ALLEYS is an Arabic language crime drama in which a blackmailer sets off a chain reaction that has the lives of neighbourhood families and criminals colliding in unexpected ways.

violence
A knife is inserted into a man's mouth and his tongue is slashed; we do not see any cutting, but the man spits blood from his mouth. There is a bloody throat slashing and a man is stabbed with scissors, resulting in blood splashing over his face and clothes and pooling behind him. A man clamps the head of another to the ground with his foot and cuts his cheek with a knife. A woman is hit in the head with a pole. There are also shootings and hand-to-hand fighting, including headbutts, punches and kicks.
language
There is strong language ('motherf**ker', 'f**k') and milder terms, including 'prick', 'shit', 'asshole', 'bastard, 'piss', 'crap', 'son-of-a-bitch', 'God', 'damn' and 'hell'.
sexual violence and sexual threat
A crime boss threatens to have the mother and sisters of another man raped by the criminals he employs. A woman threatens to 'pimp out' a man's sisters. A man tries to kiss a woman without her consent but is rebuffed.
additional issues
There are verbal references to the misuse of illegal drugs, including marijuana, and we see misuse of painkillers. Scenes of threat include a man being held at knifepoint; another is threatened with being set alight and men are bound, gagged and threatened with death. There are undetailed references to sex workers and prostitution, and undetailed moderate sex references.
