Spoilers
Violence & Gore
- Two men from the Taliban grab guards at a wedding party around the neck and force them to the ground. It appears that they have choked them unconscious. The Taliban men then proceed to enter the wedding party, pull out pistols, and shoot the bride and groom in quick succession. The bride and groom slump over. No blood is shown. The next scene is of the newlyweds's funeral.
- A man opens the lid of a pot to discover a man's decapitated head boiling in water and blood.
Frightening & Intense Scenes
- A man is kidnapped at gunpoint by members of the Taliban. The kidnapped man leaves his bomb-laden jacket behind, sneaks out of the house where he's been taken, and remotely detonates the bomb, causing a large explosion and (presumably) killing the Taliban members inside.
