sexual violence and sexual threat
A man attempts to rape a teenage girl, throwing her to the floor and getting between her legs before intervention comes. A soldier gropes teenage girls under the pretence of searching them.

There are scenes of moderate threat in which a dinghy starts to sink, and also when an artillery shell lands near a young woman. There are real bloody images and undetailed war violence in footage of conflict in Syria. There is infrequent use of moderate bad language ('bitch'), and other terms such as 'shit' and 'ass'. There are brief scenes of discrimination.
