threat and horror
An eagle swoops at and attacks a man in what appears to be a supernaturally driven attack. There are intense, suspenseful scenes of menace as characters search or move through secluded locations or are faced with evidence of witchcraft or black magic rituals. A character narrowly avoids being hit by a vehicle and is involved in a car accident after a sequence involving reckless driving. There is brief gun and knife threat.
sex
There are undetailed verbal references to sexual activity and a woman suggestively propositions a man in an anonymous phone call. Characters discuss extra marital affairs and a woman accuses a man of suggesting she grants sexual favours to others.
sexual violence and sexual threat
A university professor is accused of raping one of his students, but there is no detail around the alleged assault; he confronts her over this accusation and various characters discusses this situation.
flashing/flickering lights
This work contains flashing images which may affect viewers who are susceptible to photosensitive epilepsy.
additional issues
There is mild bad language ('bloody'). There are undetailed references to suicide and a character seemingly makes an attempt to end their own life for supernatural reasons. A man slaps another in the face, knocking him over. A character attacks another with a blade, but they are fended off before injury is caused.
