Sex & Nudity

  • The film features some artistic nudity, primarily portrayed through several female nude sculptures. While most of these sculptures lack explicit details, there is one instance where a sculpture is explicitly shown for an extended period. There is also a scene in which a woman poses nude; however, only her head and shoulders are visible. Additionally, the film's intertitles contain drawings that depict nudity, although these depictions are not explicit and may be challenging to discern.
  • There is a scene in which a man is shown showering, but the only thing clearly visible is his silhouette through the shower curtain.

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

The portrayal is subtle and brief. Additionally, intertitles mention that a man suffers from a few heart attacks as a result of his constant manipulation and hypnotization of a young woman, two of which are shown.
  • The main theme of the film depicts the antagonist manipulating a young woman through hypnotization for his own personal gain. Although this manipulation is clearly used against her will, it is otherwise not portrayed in an abusive manner.
