Sexual themes
Two characters have sex a couple of times. Nudity is mostly avoided except for one shower scene where you can see a male’s buttocks.
Drug references
In a club, a character takes molly from a stranger. They say they’re “tripping balls,” later get robbed, and end up in tears – but are fine afterwards.
Offensive language
Offensive language includes “sh*t,” “crap,” and “bastard.” Characters also use the middle finger.
Adult themes
Characters discuss author Ernest Hemingway’s suicide. The conversation is not graphic, and the impact is softened as it is framed as historical discussion rather than personal experience.
