Sex & Nudity شدت: ندارد None

Violence & Gore شدت: متوسط In the first five minutes of the movie, a teacher is found hanging by a sash from the ceiling of her classroom. We see her through the classroom window on the opposite side of the room. We do not see her face. The scene is emotionally disturbing, but not graphic at all.

Violence & Gore شدت: متوسط The rest of the movie deals with the children and adults handling the aftermath of her suicide.

Violence & Gore شدت: متوسط A child draws a noose around a photo of the teacher who hung herself.

Violence & Gore شدت: متوسط Two children get into a shoving match at school, with lots of name-calling.

Frightening & Intense Scenes شدت: متوسط In one very emotional scene, a child breaks down in tears and repeatedly asks if his teacher's suicide was his fault.

Frightening & Intense Scenes شدت: متوسط Some intense, convincing acting from the child actors makes the theme of the movie that much more real.

Profanity شدت: کم Several uses of "damn" and "goddamn". Name-calling including "retard". A few minor racist remarks against Arabs (as the main character is from Algeria).

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking شدت: کم Two adults drink wine at dinner.

Frightening & Intense Scenes شدت: متوسط The idea of a teacher committing suicide inside a classroom while the children are at recess can be quite disturbing for young children.
