The main character is SA’d and an attempt on the other. This trigger is very prominent in the first hour of the film. If you have this pinned or are very uncomfortable I suggest skipping this.

The protagonist’s abusive husband tells her to shave him. It’s a tense scene and you can tell that the protagonist actually wants to kill him. She is interrupted right as she puts the straight razor to his neck
