Sex & Nudity

  • Naked female breasts, sometimes being groped, including by someone in a fatherly role. Groping of female intimate body parts (clothed) during making of pornographic films and as humiliation during gang conflict. Male characters in their underwear. Likely rape of a hostess. Implied prostitution. Sexual language including requests to be hit during foreplay. Female underwear hanging to dry immediately outside a flat.

Violence & Gore

  • Violence between individuals and gangs, including some deliberate humiliation. Violence includes punching; kicking; head butting; hitting with golf clubs, baseball bats, metal pipes, a fire extinguisher; electrocution with a stun gun. At least one character is killed. Two are tied up and shot with an imitation rifle. Self harm, including hitting and cutting with a craft knife. Injury detail includes some blood - not much, considering.

Profanity

  • Language is generally abusive rather than strongly offensive - slut, bitch, prick, badass. Fuck is used in writing, referring to a pornographic film - 'Animal Fuck'. I think I remember 'shit' being used in English subtitles, but only once. Many derogatory comments about various faiths - a character is said to have become a Christian as her 13th religion.

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

  • Tobacco smoking. A character smokes a long-stemmed pipe with a small bowl - likely to be a narcotic. Beer and spirits drunk in hostess bars. Characters sniff glue. A female character behaves in an uninhibited sexual way that is out of character - implied that she has been drugged as part of gang activity.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • Self harm. Violence against what appears to be a child, including while he lies on the ground (offscreen). Prostitution, exploitation, sexual abuse theme. Drug use theme.
