Sex & Nudity

Violence & Gore

  • A man is seen hanging, having committed suicide.
  • A woman jumps from a tall industrial tower.
  • In two separate yet almost identical scenes, characters place guns under their chins and shoot themselves. These scenes are very brief and no blood or bullet wounds are shown.
  • A large cargo plane crashes and explodes. The crash is out of sight.

Profanity

  • One use of the word 'shit'. (This may depend on the version of the subtitles.) One or two uses of hell.

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

  • Some smoking.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • Very intense focus on the effects of loneliness and depression, which may effect certain viewers with a history of such things.
  • Scenes where the characters find disturbing videos and footage on the internet with ghostly figures and people behaving erratically and committing suicide can be very disturbing and intense.
  • Many frightening scenes, with ghost-like figures and sound and music to heighten the sense of horror. One such scene is when a ghost walks slowly to a man, crouching down in an animalistic and highly unnatural way. The man hides behind a couch, thinking he's safe, when the ghost peers her head over.
