sexual violence

sexual violence and sexual threat
A man and a woman are coerced to have sex with one another against their will. There are verbal references to a woman being forced into sex work in return for food and protection.
additional issues
A woman accidentally smothers a child to death while paralysed by a seizure; the child is mostly hidden, but we hear him struggling to breathe. A scene of consensual sex features moderate thrusting detail but no visible nudity. There are occasional references to suicide, including fleeting images of bloody detail in the aftermath of an off-screen suicide attempt. In another scene, a paralysed patient dies by voluntary euthanasia. There are brief outdated references to disability, including use of the term ‘retarded’. Naked women are shown washing in a bathhouse, with natural full frontal nudity, and there is further natural breast nudity in a scene in which a woman bathes alone in her room. Other issues include references to infertility and abortion.
