sex
A woman becomes aroused after consuming an aphrodisiac; she dances with several men whose hands fondle her body, including between her legs before it's implied she has sex with a man on horseback. In another scene, a topless man and woman embrace passionately.
additional issues
A domineering mother forbids her daughter to marry because tradition dictates her daughter is to care for her until her death; frustrated by her mother, the daughter expresses brief outbursts of physical aggression which are portrayed in balletic movements. There are scenes of emotional upset in which characters grieve, including for the loss of a child. An emotionally fraught woman makes a strangulation gesture around her neck with her hair in moments of grief. A man is stabbed in an impressionistic manner. Scenes of threat involve an evil spectre looming over scared characters.
