Sex & Nudity

-A nude/sexual scene occurs in which a woman's breasts are shown multiple times from different angles. The scene becomes somewhat explicit, as a man puts salt and lemon juice on her breasts to lick, and uses another food item on her vagina to arouse her. Her vagina is never seen (although barely covered in some shots), and no intercourse takes place.

-A man briefly touches a woman's breats (while clothed), then the man and woman exchange a yoke of an egg back and forth by having their mouths close to each other's. Similar to passionate kissing; this scene has an obvious sexual connotation, but is brief.

-In what may be a fantasy/dream sequence, a younger girl licks blood off of an older man's face, with a slight sexual implication.

-The end credits is of a mother breast-feeding her baby. The camera pans closer to her and eventually zooms very close to the breast she is using to nurse her baby.

Violence & Gore

-Younger boys of around age 8 get in fistfights with each other, but the scenes only contain mild violence.

-In a dream sequence, a man holds a woman by the neck on a kitchen-like counter and appears to choke her while restraining her.

-Two older men get in a non-explicit fistfight.

-A man gets shot several times, and is seen bleeding to death.

Profanity

-One instance of 'G--Damn', and a few instances of 'God' as a curse word in the subtitles.

-A few instances of characters smoking, and ordering beer from restaurants.

-The scene of the man getting shot several times may be abrupt for some viewers, being a possible jump scene.
