Nothing really. A non graphic scene containing a woman giving birth may offend some.

Due to the film being based around an actual Genocide, there are many violent scenes. Inncocent people are killed, usually by machete and gun. There are many dead bodies of Men, Women and Children seen from about halfway throug the film. There is a scene where a man is dragged off a road into some bushes by two men carrying machete's, he is subsequently hacked to death. There is a scene that shows the aftermath of an attack on a church where the bloody corpses of Nuns are shown. There is a scene where a group of people trying to escape are chased down and stabbed with machete's, during this scene a mother and chlld that we have become attached to are chased down also, the mother is graphically cut down her back as the two men stand over the dead mother and the baby, we cannot see the dead body or the baby but we can hear the baby's cries, the two men that kill the mother are standing over the body and one man strikes down with his machete and the crying from the baby stops. This a non graphic but very disturbing scene

Some strong language throughout the film.

Reference to getting a beer early in the movie.

The scenes containing killing very intense and may be frightening for some.
