Okja, the main super pig, is tortured by humans several times throughout the movie from being zapped with an electric rod to stabbed, roped, and chained. One purposefully disgusting part is when Okja is raped by another super pig. We don't see the rape but have to hear it's cries while humans talk about feeling bad they knowingly put Okja in harms way. They also show the confinement and slaughter of several other super pigs and show a room of the living failures of genetically tested super pigs. The final slaughterhouse shots of the film are reminiscent of holocaust concentration camps, with two parent pigs pushing their baby through and electrified fence so the main characters can save it's life.

It's a really well made film that reflects the torture and slaughter of animals in the food industry. It purposefully portrays the industry as lacking any ethics or empathy.

Mija at the beginning by the grandfather when they take away Okja.
The corporation is lying to the people about the superpigs, but I don't think that qulifies as gaslighting.

Mija, the protagonist girl gets a lot of (not too serious) injuries, but it's more the product of the action-filled chase to get her friend back, than abuse targeted at her.

Many of the fictitious "Super Pigs" are abused in graphic ways such as forced mating, penning hundreds together in small pens, and other such abuses. The "pigs" are intended to be killed for food.

Okja the super pig is raped by a male super pig. It's not shown on screen, but you can hear her screaming while humans listen and talk about how horrible the "forced mating" is.

there are gunshots that can be heard in the distance at the end of the movie, implying they are killing off superpigs. there's also a horrific scene where you can hear okja being raped by another super pig off screen.

There are a couple of scenes where Okja is in a van with a lot of people. I wouldn’t say it’s claustrophobic, but it seems tight.

One of the Animal Liberation Front characters is deeply malnourished and underweight because he believes all food consumption is unethical, so he's trying not to eat anything. It's not exactly a clinical eating disorder.
