Sex & Nudity شدت: متوسط Lots of themes of sexuality, lots of sex talk, and aspirations to lose one's virginity, to rape, and to get laid.

Sex & Nudity شدت: متوسط Sexually suggestive dialogues refer to genitals and common practices in sexual relations. An example occurs when Dadinho states that "Angélica was the only 'chick' he had sex with and that he was dying to lose his virginity to her." These references serve to illustrate the precocity and normalization of adult themes among young people in vulnerable environments, echoing social critiques about the loss of childhood innocence in urban peripheries, as a discourse in sociological analyses of favelas in Brazil.

Sex & Nudity شدت: متوسط A bare chested man gets out of bed. Not graphic.

Violence & Gore شدت: زیاد The violence is presented as the main, if not the only, tool for conflict resolution. This narrative structure highlights how violence becomes endemic in unequal societies, aligning itself with criminality within violent subcultures.

Violence & Gore شدت: زیاد In several sequences of drug trafficking takeovers, groups of about ten men armed with rifles fired simultaneously at isolated individuals. The scenes detail the victim's body spasming under the impact of the projectiles, evidencing that the shooting continues even after the obvious death of the target. These moments use realism to convey the horror of urban warfare.

Violence & Gore شدت: زیاد During a motel robbery in partnership with the "Trio Ternura," the underage Dadinho enters the establishment after his accomplices leave to execute everyone present. When a victim questions him, "Your friend already took everything. What more do you want?", Dadinho responds with fatal gunshots and laughter. He ignores the cries for help from a tied-up woman and systematically shoots everyone, demonstrating complete indifference to the value of human life. This behavior is reinforced in a flashback scene that, after the death of the character Marreco, shows a succession of executions committed by the antagonist until he kills most of the victims. This initial scene establishes Dadinho's psychopathic nature, based on real-life figures of juvenile delinquency in the favelas.

Violence & Gore شدت: زیاد One of the most serious moments regarding the aggravating factors of vulnerability occurs when Zé Pequeno confronts a group of juvenile delinquents. He captures two minors and imposes a sadistic choice between receiving a shot in the hand or the foot. Although the children choose the hand, the criminal shoots one of them in the foot, prolonging his suffering. In an act of extreme cruelty, he coerces another boy, nicknamed "Filé," to execute one of the boys. Under intense threats, the minor gives in and shoots, consummating the murder of the other child in a context of profound coertion. This scene is particularly shocking because it involves the corruption of innocence, echoing real accounts of the recruitment of children by traffickers.
