violence
There are references to domestic abuse, including a scene in which it is implied that a disobedient child is being whipped by his father using a belt, although the violence takes place off screen. In other scenes, adults are struck and thrown to the ground.
threat and horror
Sequences of threat include bombing raids and explosions during wartime, with people fleeing to seek cover. Occasional heated arguments also feature.
language
There is infrequent use of strong language ('motherf**ker'), as well as milder terms including 'prick', 'whore', 'bullshit', 'shit', 'crap', 'goddamn', 'hell' and 'God'.
sex
Occasional sex references include visual depictions of sex workers with clients in a brothel, although no nudity or sexual activity is shown beyond kissing and embracing. There are also verbal references to sex, as well as mild verbal innuendo.
discrimination
References are made to racism and discrimination, including antisemitism, reflecting the historical period in which parts of the film are set. One scene depicts a man being subjected to racially motivated threat, when Nazis order him to drop his trousers so they can check whether he is a Jew. During the course of this scene, discriminatory language is employed about gypsies and Jews. In another scene, a different man expresses racist views about gypsies.
injury detail
In the aftermath of a wartime bombing, dead bodies and blood are briefly seen. A man finds a piece of glass embedded in his head and has to extract it, causing further bleeding.
theme
References are made to bereavement, illness and the impact of war. Occasional upsetting scenes depict characters dealing with loss and grief.
flashing/flickering lights
This work contains flashing images which may affect viewers who are susceptible to photosensitive epilepsy.
