A MIDSUMMER NIGHT'S DREAM is an adaptation of Shakespeare's comedy play, in which the romantic longings of various characters become confused and amplified by a generous helping of fairy magic.

violence
A dream-like boxing sequence involves punches, shoves and a headbutt. A young woman shoves and slaps a young man who behaves in a harassing way toward her. Characters are pushed and prodded by armed guards. A man grabs his daughter forcibly as he reprimands her.
language
There is use of the 'middle-finger' gesture, and there is wordplay and innuendo around the term 'ass'. There is use of the milder term 'hell'.
sex
There is innuendo and word-play around the terms 'buggery' and 'beggary'. Characters are exposed to magic which affects their romantic desires. There is gun threat and a woman driving a vehicle is chased by military quad bikes. Detainees of an oppressive regime are herded and intimidated by armed guards. Characters passionately kiss and caress one another, sometimes lying together romantically.
additional issues
A fairy character uses a vaping device to disperse a bewitching, magical substance. Characters under the influence of this magic become romantically obsessed, with two young men making unwanted advances on a young woman. She physically shoves them away and reprimands them for their behaviour. Performers in a play mime stabbing themselves in the chest as part of their show. A man breaks wind and rushes to the toilet in a comic scene.
