- This is not a film to be taken lightly. It is a highly depressing and realistic look at the lives of inner city students and teachers. Suicide, death, abuse, prostitution, and depression are all highly prevalent themes in the movie.
- A cat is implied to be brutally abused until death. Very hard to watch.
- Teachers lash out on students verbally.

- A teenaged girl is a prostitute and she is shown doing her "work" graphically. In one scene, she is shown performing oral sex on an old man and gets slapped in the face afterwords. A man takes her into his home and she implies that somebody has raped her. Later on, social workers take her away and she screams and cries. Very emotional.
