No, but there is childhood nudity. Saga (12) shows Ingemar (12) her breasts and asks if he wants to feel them. And a bedbound elderly man has Ingemar read to him from a lingerie catalog. There's no sexual energy directed at Ingemar, but it's still a bit weird.

Judgment call on whether you think the gaze of the film unnecessarily sexualizes Saga. Saga (12) shows Ingemar (12) her breasts and asks if he wants to feel them.

Around 5 minutes in the main character, a young boy, is peer pressured into sticking his penis in a bottle and it gets stuck. His brother breaks the glass and an adult helps him remove it. It's kept out of frame and there's no blood or injury.

Lots of kids tussling and teasing each other, but never quite rises to a bully targeting one kid and picking on them or beating them up.

Saga, a tomboy, expresses displeasure at starting to grow breasts and she binds them so they don't show. It's not portrayed traumatically—more matter of fact.
