violence
Strong violence features stranglings, beatings and the attempted drowning of a woman in a bath by a man who holds her underwater by her throat. A woman struggles as she is held down violently in the establishment of a forced abortion. There is implied domestic abuse as a young child listens in distress to the sounds of her mother being beaten by her father. A woman talks about her mother punishing her with a stick, and shows the scars on her body sustained in the beatings. There are occasional bloody images.
threat and horror
There is strong threat in the context of woman and children forced into sex work.
sex
There are verbal and visual references to sex work and the activities in brothels, but without strong detail. There are also sex scenes, outside the context of sex work, which feature thrusting and implied nudity.
sexual violence and sexual threat
There is sexual threat and abuse of women and children who have been forced into sex work, but the scenes contain no graphic detail and the abuse is generally implied. It is also implied that a man compels a woman into performing non-consensual oral sex on him. A sex worker makes a deliberate decision to have sex with a man she knows to be her father, who does not recognise her, as revenge for abandoning her as a child; the man subsequently kills himself when he finds out he has committed incest.
additional issues
There is moderate bad language ('whore', 'bitch', 'shag'), as well as milder terms such as 'ass', 'piss', 'son of a bitch', 'hell', 'God', 'Jesus', 'damn').
