Content that may disturb

The film starts with a motorcycle driving fast through a vast landscape. We see the bike crash with the two riders flying through the air. We don’t see the outcome of the crash.

Friends hold an intervention for their friend when she arrives home with another lover. He drops a handgun while removing his jacket and claims he carries it for self-defence.

Intimate partner violence and self-harm.

In an emotional dance sequence, the lead character is fighting with her lover. He pushes her against the glass and smashes the window behind her as he yells “Why do you always make me do this?” The dance sequence continues with them connected with rope – he smacks her – the rope is tied around her neck as they dance. We see different couples in forms of embrace or arguing. She uses broken glass to cut the rope and escape from her partner but finds herself trapped again. She screams and smashes all of the glass walls, walking over the broken glass to escape. This dance sequence is striking and emotional. It may be disturbing for viewers impacted by domestic abuse.

Offensive language

There are brief moments of strong language when the characters are upset, such as “f*ck Libras” and “you treat me like sh*t!”.

Sexual themes

There are several dance sequences which loosely tell the story of the character’s emotional journey, and are filmed like a music video. These dance sequences can be sexually suggestive. No nudity is shown.
