violence
In the background of a scene we see a man being roughly restrained and arrested by police, without visible injury detail. In another scene one man grabs another roughly by the collar during a confrontation. A woman praises her husband by saying that he doesn’t drink or smoke or ‘even beat [her]’.
language
There is infrequent and partially obscured use of strong language (‘f**k’). Milder terms include ‘shit’, ‘bloody hell’ and ‘screw’, as well as a partially obscured but identifiable use of the insult ‘arselicker’.
discrimination
There are infrequent scenes in which a man expresses resistance to his wife working outside the home, but sexism is not condoned.
injury detail
We see a small cut on a boy’s leg after an off-screen accident.
suicide and self-harm
There are infrequent verbal references to an off-screen suicide. Unlikeable characters make callous remarks about the incident, but their behaviour is not endorsed.
sexual violence and sexual threat
A woman attempts to persuade a female masseuse who only takes female clients to massage her husband, assuring her that he’s ‘not that kind of man’.
theme
Mild upsetting scenes show the main characters dealing with stressful jobs, demeaning treatment by customers and employers, and tough financial pressures. There are also infrequent mild upsetting scenes involving illness. However, the tone of these scenes is restrained and matter-of-fact.
alcohol and smoking
A drunk man is shown gagging as he rushes off screen to vomit.
flashing/flickering lights
This work contains flashing images which may affect viewers who are susceptible to photosensitive epilepsy.
