Contains moderate horror, sex and nudity

A puritan Police Sergeant is sent to a Scottish island village in search of a missing girl who the townsfolk claim never existed; stranger still are the pagan rites that take place there.

threat and horror
Moderate horror includes undetailed sight of a man being burned alive.
sex
Sex consists of a dimly-lit sequence, which reveals from a distance couples engaged in sexual activity. The lighting and distance conceal any details, the scene being presented in the context of a fertility ritual.
nudity
Nudity includes sight of a bare-breasted woman dancing provocatively alone in her room. There is no full frontal nudity at this point.
additional issues
The film also contains some very mild bad language ('hell', 'damn'), non-sexualised nudity and mild sex references.
