Violence & Gore

  • some violence: all historically related, military opens fire on crowd, disturbing but not overly gruesome

Profanity

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

  • numerous instances of smoking and alcohol use are shown, no drug references

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • The scene of the military opening fire on the crowd is frightening and intense, at a medium level. One clip shows a photograph of a man aiming a gun at the photographer, so that the viewer is looking down the barrel.
