This movie contains 15 potentially triggering events.
A man briefly puts his hand on a woman’s neck during a passionate speech, which sounds like a veiled threat that he could easily harm her if he desired.
Not exactly, but a child is mentally and physically bullied by an older relative, and she is forced into a room she is scared of, causing mental torment. She is later forced to stand on a chair without food or water and be socially shunned by her peers. It is depicted as being a harsh method of punishment at her boarding school.
The protagonist is an orphan who does not have a nice childhood because of that. We do not see the parents die and it happened before the story begins.
No, but a young woman keeps her childhood doll with her. It is temporarily taken from her as a child, and when she is an adult it is damaged in a fire. She finds it after the fire.
A married man kisses and tries to marry another woman. He cannot divorce from his meanwhile mentally ill wife that he didn‘t want to marry in the first place but was made to. It is also implied that he had an affair with a French woman before that.
A few scenes give the slightly spooky impression of there being a ghost (screams at night, moving tapestry), but later there is a natural explanation for the events. We don‘t see any ghost or ghost-like creature.
Right in the beginning the female protagonist runs away in panic and despair from a yet unknown situation she could not handle emotionally. Later on we see that moment again - this time with an explanation of what freaked her out exactly (being lied to by the man she loves and a morally questionable decision she was asked to but could not make).
In a different scene (as a child) she gets so scared by a harmless but spooky seeming event that she faints.
In some scenes she wakes up from weird noises at night. They scare her but she manages these situations well.
A mentally ill, aggressive woman is kept hidden in a secret, locked room against her will.
Also in an early scene the protagonist (as a child) is locked into a room for punishment and screams and hits against the door to be left out. She gets scared by a sudden, harmless but spooky seeming event inside the room and faints.
A young girl dies and it’s not sure if she is LGBT or not. She has a very close relationship with another girl at a boarding school and they treat each other as chosen family until her untimely death.
A woman’s love is described as being sinful and a moral failing by a religious person. Not necessarily hate speech but it is delivered hatefully and judmentally.
Romance between a man and a woman with kissing and obvious desire for each other, but otherwise no sexual touching, undressing of each other or sex scene. Also no naked bodies in a different context.
All in all the protagonists get a happy ending, although something sad happens to one of them. A side character has a tragic ending but was not explored enough as an actual character to make the viewer really feel for her (she is more like a plot device).
