This movie contains 7 potentially triggering events.
No. But I will say given the context of the whole movie when the father sees the daughter as an adult the nickname he has for her gives a really creepy vibe and wouldn't put it past him to have meant it like that when she was a child if that makes sense.
At first the child does not believe she is being abused. Accuses their mother (another victim) of being abusive instead of the abuser. In adult life she does not believe this.
VERY tiny needle used for sick and poke tattooing. You can barely tell it's a needle because the ink covers most of it it's so small. That said their are close ups of it going in the skin while tattooing.
There are many in the movie, a lot of hunting so deer, rabbit, wolfs. Also after the beginning some not just for like food. In the beginning it seems to be very much "I need food, don't let the animal suffer to much" then that changes
Several rabbits die. In the beginning it's for food in snares. Towards the late middle of the movie a rabbit is killed off screen and then manually put in a snare. There is a lot of blood in this scene unlike the others.
The main characters mother is sexually assaulted resulting in the main characters birth. It is implied just with other abuse she goes through that it is ongoing, but nothing other than physical abuse is shown in the movie.
