Sex & Nudity

  • Hardcore pornography, specifically a single scene of heterosexual fellatio, is briefly featured in distance resolution.
  • The opening scene of the film is of two fifteen-year-old boys being interviewed by an out-of-frame woman while they the explain the various indices, categories, genres of pornography available on a website that they're perusing on a tablet smartphone, the content of the screen of which is vaguely visible in the wide-angle shot. They then briefly discuss whether they're addicted to Internet pornography, and the interview leads into one of the boys talking about the details of last pornographic video he had watched. He accesses and replays video, showing it, and there is a closeup shot of the screen. The video itself starts out with a closeup of a completely naked woman's breasts, before there is a zoom-out and wide-angle shot of the naked woman briefly talking to a clothed man who begins to kiss and snog her breasts. Back to a wide-angle shot of the boy showing the video, he fast-forwards to a part where the woman is performing rapid fellatio on the man, and then he pauses it after a second or two, setting the tablet upon a nearby desk. All the while he had been answering the interviewer's questions or talking about the sexual acts demonstrated in the video, mentioning things like how the man ejaculates all over the woman's face in the end.
  • The pornography categories mentioned and explained by the boys, in their own words or the words of the website, include: hentai, MILF, Asian, anal, big dick, celebrity, amateur ("virgin"), gay, rough sex ("manhandling"), shemale, BBW, bondage ("latex, apple in your mouth, no talking, whips out"), arse, babe ("proper blonde girls"), cream pie ("where they cum inside her and just leave it there"), college, striptease, brunette, small tits, bukkake and live webcam. When announcing "cream pie", one of the boys says that he doesn't even know what it is, and the other immediately defines it.
  • A fifteen-year-old girl gives an account of performing sexual acts on a man or teenage boy in exchange for the funds to purchase a high-end smartphone. It's vaguely implied that she visited him more than once, such as for each payment on an installment loan. In addition, she gives another account of performing fellatio on a group of males who had stolen her phone and detained her, in exchange for her freedom and her property.
  • In the context of online exposure, a published psychoanalyst explains how boys and young men may tend to think that sex is about ejaculating in a girl's face and without even imagining the act of sexual intercourse.
  • A montage of Internet video snippets of violent or otherwise aberrant human behavior in public spaces includes brief footage of a naked man climbing atop an outdoor statute, the man's legs wrapped around the statute's head.
  • Part of the documentary follows the journey of a fifteen-year-old boy who is in mutual love (and lust) with another teenage boy he had been in correspondence with through social media sites and video teleconferencing, as he meets his friend in person for the first time and takes him home. They are later shown in bed together, fully clothed but one has his arms wrapped around the other, as they synchronize or link their smartphones together.
  • All of the people interviewed, even the professionals, use the colloquial forms of the sexual activities described herein, i.e. "cum" (not ejaculate) and "blow job" (not fellatio).

Violence & Gore

  • No gore.
  • There is short montage of various pieces of footage of mild public violence, from various parts of the world, available through the Internet, including public whippings (carried out by sharia enforcers), street brawls, riots and arson, even terrorists posing with fully-automatic rifles.
  • A fifteen-year-old girl gives an account of having been detained by a group of males, and basically coerced into engaging in sexual acts with them. She says that she wouldn't have complied with them and even risked being battered by them, if they hadn't stolen and held her smartphone hostage.
  • A sequence of text messages containing threats, violent rhetoric and otherwise harassing statements, representing an exchange between two parties, at least one of whom was a minor, is shown. It's revealed that the fourteen-year-old victim wound up dead, although it's unclear as to whether he committed suicide or was murdered by a bully who made good on his threats.

Profanity

  • After leaving a social gathering or a concert, a fifteen-year-old boy tells his accompanying peers, "She wanted it, bruv. You knew that, 'cause she started chatting. She was fit. Oy, I've got a stomach ache, man. I'm dying here. O, I need a fag as well. I need a shit, and I need to fucking get my dick sucked tonight." (He is referring to a cigarette with the use of the word "fag".)
  • The expansion phrase of the acronym MILF is provided. As well, "arse" is uttered, and "dick" used in a context of other than the diminutive form of the name Richard.
  • Some of the soundtrack includes a gentle song that contain curse words, such as "fuck".

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

  • No alcohol.
  • On a night out on the town, a fifteen-year-old boy can be seen smoking a cigarette. In in earlier scene, he mentions drug addiction in analogy with sex addiction and love: "You try drugs for the first time, you love it, then you get addicted to it, and it ruins the whole sense of drugs."
  • No further smoking appears in the movie. No drug use appears at all, and there only a few other references to drugs.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • None.
  • Given the display of hardcore pornography albeit short, a suitable rating for the picture could possibly be NC-17 or merely R, but a rating of PG-13 would be most suitable, as the most disturbing elements come only in the form of oration.
