A widowed field mouse must move her family -- including an ailing son -- to escape a farmer's plow. Aided by a crow and a pack of superintelligent, escaped lab rats, the brave mother struggles to transplant her home to firmer ground.
This movie contains 31 potentially triggering events.
Several mice are blown off screen and we are told they die. A spider is graphically killed. Several humanoid Rats kill each other in combat / with falling objects.
Animals of all kinds are shown in the NIMH lab, sad and suffering. Rats are stuck with large syringes in the belly. This is depicted as painful and traumatic for the rats.
Yes, but not in the way that is usually meant by this prompt. NIMH stands for the National Institute of Mental Health. The only place within the facility we see is the places where animals are caged. We don't see any humans undergoing treatment.
While it is not self harm, some wire accidentally scratches Mrs Brisby's arm while she is captured in the farmhouse and she submerges the cut in water and it could be triggering to some as being reminiscent of self harm
i don't speak for everyone with disabilities, but as an autistic person i wouldn't say there's anything ableist in the slightest. in a brief scene, a very young child is ignored due to being disruptive (one of those 'i'm only going to listen to the child talking politely' things), but she isn't particularly neurodivergent coded. just five years old
a character dies, but the rats escape safely, the villain is killed, mrs brisby and her children move successfully, and timmy recovers. we end on a scene of mrs brisby in her new home, smiling and laughing. so although the journey was difficult, the ending is happy
