Genocide and mass murder is the main theme of the film: atrocities are frequently discussed throughout

Militiamen with machetes are seen murdering people. It's disturbing but usually depicted from afar, not too graphic

Dead bodies and severed body parts are depicted. Amonst the goriest sights are piles of severed limbs and an image of thousands of massacred corpses in an abandonned church

War scenes, shootings, bombs dropped and explosions

Brief moderate to strong language (ex: "bullshit")

Social drinking and smoking

The theme of the film is intense and emotional. The impact is hightened by the fact it is all based on real historical events.

Militamen act in a threatening manner against civilians and the main characters of the movie.

Disturbing imagery pervades the film, notably images of dead bodies. In one protracted scene, a road is seen covered in corpses and characters have to move them in order to advance with vehicules. In another, a woman slips in a pool of blood and starts crying hysterically before being killed. Severed limbs are picked up and thrown in heaps.

Not recommanded for children under 15. However, this is a true story and an important historical lesson about the horrors of the 20th century. Parents/educators can and should watch this film with (older) teens and try to contextualize the events.
