CHOCOLAT is a 1988 period drama in which a French woman's visit to Cameroon, where her father was formerly a colonial administrator, conjures memories of her childhood home. 

language
The film features strong language ('motherf**ker' and 'f**k'). 
discrimination
There is racist language ('n****r') aimed at an African man. The film explores racism in the 1950s in Africa, in particular the relationship between a white family and their black servant. 
additional issues
A man lets a child hold on to a pipe, knowing it would be too hot for her, and there is brief focus on her burnt skin. There is moderate violence when two men briefly fight; one holding the other's neck. There are also images of bloodied dead animals. It is implied that there is sexual tension between a woman and her employee; however there is no strong detail. There is natural penis nudity when a man showers.
