Frightening & Intense Scenes
-
- A man is said to have a child held hostage. Although you cannot see, you can hear the child crying. It is also mentioned that the kid has been crying so much that her voice is weak. This may be disturbing or distressing to some viewers
- Nothing overly frightening, but the film plays strongly on human emotion, and there are depressing scenes in which viewers will probably feel empathy for various people. The father beating his daughter may be disturbing, especially with the daughter's constant crying. Also, the film as a whole has a somewhat dark tone.
