Sex & Nudity

  • There is an implied sentimental adulterous love triangle. However, this is brief and it is also implied that nothing happens.
  • The children incessantly use the word "maricón," a Spanish slur toward homosexual males. Though there are no homosexual male characters.
  • Two young teenage characters kiss. Very family-friendly.

Violence & Gore

  • A man shoots a gun repeatedly at an airplane. No results.
  • Some soldiers force their way into a house to search it.
  • A woman dies from a disease. Gentle.

Profanity

  • Occasional. Including "co**" (a Spanish word variously translated, potentially as strong as f***). See also the note in "Sex & Nudity" on "maricón."

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

  • A woman smokes, and talks with another woman who secretly smokes. The latter comments that in their town, the men, and she, smoke.
  • The protagonist, a 12-year-old girl, tries smoking briefly (cigarette). During minute 42. With boys her age who smoke.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

Spoilers

The Parents Guide items below may give away important plot points.

Violence & Gore

  • A boy is beaten up by civil guards (police) for his father's political affiliation. Nothing is shown except initial rough-housing, but the next day his friend asks him about the wounds on his face.
  • A young character is accidentally shot and killed. (The bullet was intended for an adult soldier.)

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • The death of the main girl's mother, and the danger her father is in, combined with the tragic death of the young character and the overall Spanish Civil War-time setting make it a serious film, though delivered gently.
