There’s a ton of gaslighting.
In the present, Samira is constantly gaslit by her husband, David, and Cassandra (the AI). The kids are also gaslit by David, in regards to Cassandra’s malicious and manipulative behavior, after Samira is committed.
In the flashbacks, a teenage boy is gaslit by his mom after he is beaten by his peers… she purposefully makes him feel like he’s overreacting because she wants to keep it a secret.

There are a lot of unpleasant animal testing photos at around 22minutes in. They look like possible real photos of old medical experiments. There's also a dead sheep that looks like it's been experimented on. There are two cages of live mice. I found this scene quite upsetting to watch.

In Polish version, the word "gwałt/zgwałcony" was used, which means "rape/raped", so I thought a warning would be useful.
Anyway, this warning might be helpful for poles.

Cassandra’s son Peter, is beaten up by the people in his soccer team due to them blaming him for losing a match. The act itself is not shown on screen but the wounds are.
Finn is hit by his boyfriend(?) because he tried to hide their relationship. His internalised homophobia and fear of judgment being the cause for that.

A teenage character played by an actor in his 20s is seen at night in his underwear, however this is not presented in a sexual context.
There is brief, partial, incidental nudity during a flashback where a 16/17 year old chatacter's genitals can be partially seen through the pant leg of his soccer uniform, however this is almost certainly no more than a wardrobe malfunction caught on camera. This character is also played by an actor in his 20s.

Quite offensively. It is implied that someone got aggressive a few minutes after dinner because they didn't take their medicines before dinner. Their attitude change is quite sudden and doesn't fit how any mental illness works or how any psychiatric medication works either.

She is shown at times to be emotionally unstable and even potentially violent when she inadvertently cuts her young niece's arm with scissors. The husband makes it clear he doesn't think she is safe in the house, while his wife defends her sister, telling him that he is biased by stereotypes.

The real Cassandra believes her husband is cheating on her, then we see how the woman she suspected looks like, and we’re supposed to guess that means he isn’t cheating on her. The only thing that stands out about that woman is that she’s fat. So he can’t be cheating on his wife with a fat woman.

There is a brief scene where an underage character (16/17 years old in the story) wearing a soccer/football uniform sits on the ground and his testicles are incidentally partially visible through the pant leg of his shorts. The character is played by an actor in his 20s.
