The woman is shown from the chest up and her breasts are covered by her right arm clutching the arrow in her left side. The grieving hunter leans over her and his robe covers most of her body. Her lower back and hip is visible as he cradles her dying form. Approximately one minute and in non-sexual context. -PG-13

Violence & Gore
