Lydia is sort of stalked by a former musician of hers who keeps leaving notes and presents, but it’s revealed SPOILERS that this stalking may be more of a desperate attempt to stop Lydia’s retaliation against her. Lydia briefly follows a couple women into their personal environments after they leave work, but there is no sustained stalking from her

Lydia seems to have a dependency on some sort of prescription medication that she seemingly may take out of prescription (there's a line about her using the medication and it's someone else's prescription).

I'm not sure why this has several no votes, there's a brief dream sequence where you see a blurred shot of coiled snakes and then a snake swimming through some water. About 1:51:15 in.

Main premise of the movie involves the female protagonist being accused of abusing her power to assault female musicians and retaliate against those who resist. This is not explicitly shown, but we do see the protagonist favoring a young female musician and treating her in ways that could be considered grooming. Film does not reveal whether the accusations are true or not, but the protagonist's behavior makes them seem plausible

No but at one point Lydia falls and slams her head on the ground. Nothing is seen up close by the moment and noise is jarring and you think momentarily her head is injured more than it is. We see her a scene later with a cut up and bloody face but nothing too bad.

Not an infant, and not abducted. But there is a moment at the end where Lydia expects to greet her elementary-school-aged daughter Petra coming out of school, but Lydia's wife comes and leads Petra away. It's subdued and definitely not illegal or uncalled for.

Main character is implied to have assaulted other women while married. Her wife says something that seems to imply she could forgive the cheating but not that Lydia didn't warn her about the possible assault allegations? It's a strange scene and open to interpretation

One scene quickly cuts from a song being played softly on a piano to it loudly being concluded by an orchestra in the next, which may be a little unexpected. Also, Lydia has strange nightmares and almost all of these scenes are followed by her jolting suddenly from sleep.

I'm assuming this is reference to Lydia's neighbor, a sickly elderly lady. At one point the neighbor's daughter comes and entreats Lydia to help her lift her mother, who is naked and may have soiled herself? It wasn't clear to me when I watched.

Lydia makes a comment about needing to "keep the fat off" to fit into an outfit, and her assistant assures her that she never gains weight. She also order a cucumber salad for a meal while her companion is eating a lot more, but this might be because she doesn't like the restaurant. But there's no explicit indication that she suffers from any particular eating disorder

We don't see it, but a plot point is a character from another character's past committing suicide, so it's discussed often and throughout.

The whole movie centers around the predatory lesbian trope and might still be upsetting for that reason, but even when the woman faces allegations, no homophobic slurs are used

Lydia at one point says, “Then you must be aware that Varèseonce famously stated that jazz was ‘a n**ro product exploited by the Jews.’ That didn’t stop Gerry Goldsmith from ripping him off for his Planet of the Apes score. Kind of a perfect insult, don’t you think?”

It is revealed that the title character may have had a grooming relationship with a younger woman, who later kills herself. The victim is not shown majorly on screen. It's not clear whether the victim identifies as LGBT necessarily.

There's a scene where Lydia's neighbor calls on her to help her put her ailing mother back onto her wheelchair. When Lydia arrives the mother is completely nude and there is full frontal nudity. Immediately follows Lydia goes to her apartment and strips nude to clean herself - both of these are not sexual or gratuitous in any way but still full nudity.

Ambiguous and sort of depends on how you feel about the main character, but it's nothing that is typically or easily described as "sad."
