Sex & Nudity

  • A 13-year-old teen girl catches her 10-year-old cousin naked in the shower. The boy's flaccid penis and scrotum are visible. The girl stares at her cousin's genitals as he's drying himself up.
  • This film is a mock documentary about sexual goings-on involving high school age youth, performed by teen actors, that "parents don't even suspect." It's structured as six stories told by females of things that happened to them or their friends in the past, with discussion about why events occurred and the morality of various acts and relationships.
  • Full rear and frontal nudity of males and females is pervasive. Scenes of sexual activity are frequent. Fondling and kissing of breasts is commonly visible; kissing near female pubic hair is occasional. Copulation with thrusting is shown, but no oral or anal activity. No erections and no genital contact are visible.
  • Some segments address consensual activity among persons of similar ages. Other situations depicted include adults having sex with minors, students even if above the age of consent having sex with persons in positions of control such as teachers, incest with parents, actual sexual assault and false accusations of sexual assault, and older youth considering sex with younger persons.

Violence & Gore

  • A person is murdered by pistol. The victim's mouth dripping blood is briefly and dimly visible.
  • A forcible gang rape is shown, and a forcible rape at gunpoint is shown. Both these scenes are long and very visible, not dimly lit.

Profanity

  • Very little; an occasional "shit," not much more.

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

  • Short scenes of cigarette smoking occur now and then, but not pervasively, and just occasional alcohol consumption. Any other drugs, if present, are not obvious.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • The presentation of the material as documentary stories of events in the past rather than the present somewhat lessens the impact of the scenes of violence.
