Sex & Nudity
-
- A boy and a girl kiss in the car. The girl puts her hand along the boy's leg as they make out. He then stops her before anything further happens.
- An implied joke in regards to going to "the lake".
- Sex is discussed various times in the movie during the boy's time at conversion therapy. Solitary sexual humiliation of a male student by a male staff member.
- A girl mentions that she "let another girl kiss her vagina & put her fingers inside of her", in which she "did the same".
- A scene in the boys dorm room where a guy staying over initiates intimacy. The boy explicitly says "stop", rejecting his advances and he proceeds. No male nudity shown. This sexual harassment can be distressing.
Violence & Gore

- A transgressive teenage boy is beaten with a Bible while students watch.
Profanity
-
- Four uses of "fuck," two to three uses of "bullshit."
- One use of "faggot."
Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

Frightening & Intense Scenes
-
- This movie is intense and extremely emotional. The scenes that take place at the camp are hard to watch. The fact that a father rejects his son because of his sexuality is what makes the story so depressing.
- Scene of sexual violence which can be very distressing and a possible trigger for some viewers
