Swedish censorship / rating

Certificate number 206317
Date 2019-04-26
Classification Allowed from age 15
Grounds for decision Framställningen skildrar på ett realistiskt och närgånget vis svåra teman som självmord, psykisk sjukdom och barn i utsatthet, och innehåller inslag av skrämmande, uppslitande och starkt obehaglig stämning. Vidare förekommer inslag av barn i utsatta situationer som är utelämnade åt en oberäknelig, psykiskt sjuk förälder samt en flicka som hittar sin förälder hängd efter ett självmord. Detta kan medföra stark rädsla, oro och förvirring. Framställningen bedöms kunna vara till skada för välbefinnandet för barn under 15 år.
