A person is beaten to death, without graphic injury detail. During a crunchy fight scene, a woman’s head is repeatedly struck against a metal object. A police officer hits a suspect.

language
Bad language includes ‘shit’, ‘damn’, ‘hell’ and ‘God’.
discrimination

suicide and self-harm
Several people are compelled by fantastical forces to self-harm or take their own lives.
