violence
There are occasional scenes of violence in which characters are killed and injured. However, there is minimal detail of impact on-screen.
threat and horror
Scenes of mild threat involve a doctor hypnotising his patient, keeping her captive, as well as approaching the woman with a knife, all in attempts to harness her voice. All threatening sequences are brief and end reassuringly, however. In one scene, a man is engulfed in flames, but this is not depicted close-up, or with any convincing injury detail.
