strong sex, violence

violence
A man is shot by an unseen attacker and blood spreads from the bullet holes to cover his white shirt and jacket as he stumbles around and dies. Two men also have a fight with punches and kicks and some young boys bully another with pushing and shoving and a headbutt.
sex
A couple engage in some sexualised play with food while in a hotel room. Salt, lemon and cream are licked from a woman's bare breasts as the couple kiss and embrace. They also lick honey from each other's lips and an egg yolk is passed from mouth to mouth in a sensual fashion.
additional issues
Other issues include some mild bad language, including 'bastards', 'shit', 'hell', 'damn' and 'asshole'. There is also a scene in which a soft shell turtle is killed as part of the preparation for a soup. The chef kills the turtle quickly with a single clean cut across the neck.
