violence
Domestic abuse is a theme of the film, which effects a woman's relationship and is also revealed to have impacted her parents' marriage. Scenes depict domestic violence, in which a man lashes out at his partner, and pushes her down a flight of stairs, resulting in bruising and bloody injuries such as a bite mark on the woman's chest. The man also exercises coercive control over her in various scenes; one such scene leads to sexual violence. Despite these challenging scenes, the theme of domestic abuse is handled responsibly and sensitively. In other scenes of physical violence, a young man is severely beaten by his girlfriend's father after they were found in bed together.
language
Bad language includes 'shit', 'ass', 'hell', 'God' and 'damn', in addition to use of the 'middle finger' gesture.
sex
Scenes of moderate sex occur, which lack nudity and stronger details. There are also verbal references to sex, including to contraception, genitalia, sex work and pornography.
sexual violence and sexual threat
A heightened argument between a couple escalates and culminates in a man forcing himself onto his fiancée; however, the woman manages to stop him and make an escape. While graphic details are hidden, the sequence is sustained, with some emphasis on the woman's distress, and is later repeated in a flashback. Thereafter, sexual violence is implied verbally, but not referred to explicitly.
suicide and self-harm
A man recalls experiencing suicidal ideation during a difficult period in his life; however, he was saved when he met someone new.
injury detail
Injuries are seen in the aftermath of domestic violence, such as a bite mark on a woman's chest, and a bloody cut on her forehead. A teenager's face is bloodied and bruised following a heavy beating by his girlfriend's father.
theme
A teenager sleeping rough is bullied by fellow students; however, this is clearly condemned. References are made to a tragic accident in which a young boy causes the death of their younger sibling as a result of an accident with a household firearm.
flashing/flickering lights
This work contains flashing images which may affect viewers who are susceptible to photosensitive epilepsy.
