No, but at one point in the movie the Gestapo suspect Jojo's mother to be anti-n*zis, so they come over to inspect the house and see if they find propaganda or other proof.

[SPOILERS] Jojo develops a crush on Elsa, the Jewish girl hiding in his attic. When the war ends, there is a brief scene where he lies to her and tells her that Germany won and she will have to stay in hiding. Soon afterwards, he changes his mind and takes her outside, where she sees the truth. Apparently in the book he actually carries on this deception for a long time, but in the movie it seems like he changes his mind immediately (thankfully) so it isn't too bad.

No, but there is a scene near the end of the movie in which imaginary Hitler is eating a feast with the head of a unicorn, though it looks like random meat pieces put together to look like a unicorn head. Not directly about the death of a horse, per se, but may still be triggering

While Jojo's at camp, they ask him to kill a rabbit. He lets the rabbit go but an older boy catches it and snaps its neck. Don't know the exact time the scene takes place (maybe 1/3 of the way into the movie?) but from when they take the rabbit out of its cage, it's only about 2-3 minutes til they kill it, so skip that part.

Just the one scene, about 1/3 of the way in to the movie. No torture or anything too gruesome, but a rabbit has its neck snapped. The rabbit is only onscreen a few minutes so as soon as you see the rabbit step out/look away for 4-5 minutes.

A kid gets stabbed in the leg by a knife by accident, but no blood is shown, and it is not too graphic. Threatening with knives happens a lot in the movie, and towards the end of it one character slightly stabs another one on the shoulder. There are no serious consequenses to the injury though, but blood is shown.

Battle scene near end of movie, STRONGLY implied. Like they'll show a kid run around the corner and then there's an explosion.
Also Jojo had an older (teen) sister who died before the movie takes place, and she's mentioned a few times although they never say what happened exactly.

No strobe light, but when he is going into the hidden room with the flashlight, the light faces the camera a few times. I mean, my eyes are pretty sensitive to strong light, and that had the same effect as when someone flashes a flashlight into your eyes in real life.

Antisemitic views are expressed throughout the movie. Much of it is satirical and impossible to take seriously, for example the idea that Jewish people sleep hanging upside down like bats. It should be noted that the writer/director is Jewish and that the main character comes to learn that antisemitism is wrong.

It should be noted that no overt slurs are used, only comically outlandish descriptions of Jews. ("Why don't you have horns?" "I don't grow them until I'm 21.) Still may be triggering.

It's bittersweet. The main character and the Jewish girl he befriends survive. The Allies arrive in Germany and win the war. The main character's mother is dead, as is a n*zi who becomes more morally conflicted over the course of the film.

A plane flies low over the town, and could be implied to crash, but this is not shown.

There is a pool scene where kids in full clothing and back-pack get-up jump into the water as "training", and they mention that they look like they are drowning. (They do not actually drown I guess, though the scene ends there.)

Many dead bodies in a war scene, but not very bloody. Hitler has a bloody head wound. Someone is stabbed which draws blood, but it is not a deep stab.
