There are several scenes where girls are roughly taken to the medical building on the island to be sterilized without consent. No procedures are shown. A doctor is seen leaving the building once with blood on his apron. Screaming and pleading can be heard in the background to several of these scenes.

Implied parental abuse, onscreen punitive hitting to the face and open palms of several characters (three or four scenes, mostly shown as an ordinary occurrence rather than an emotionally charged scene)

Open palms are punitively slapped with a leather strap, one scene. No damage, no close ups, one slap each in an assembly line of open palms.

Someone is shown sitting in a bucket outside in cold water, implied that she was forced to sit in it and endure the water being poured over her. No struggle shown or actively pouring water, no struggle to breathe or gain control.
