Not intentionally. The tsunami separates parents from their children.

A clerical (and likely language barrier) error at a hospital leads a young boy to believe his mother has died without him having had the chance to say goodbye. She was actually taken into surgery and moved to a different part of the hospital.

It's likely that a main character has a broken leg for most of the film.
During a hospital scene, Lucas sees a woman wheeled in with an absolutely mangled leg. Other hospital patients in the background are seen with splints and casts.

There are realistic injuries, including a huge wound on the back of the Mom's leg. It's frightening to the kid looking at it but it's brief and not lingered upon. So, judgment call but this does not seem like body horror to me, more like gore.

Just after 43 minutes: There’s one very triggering scene, when the mom and son are in the hospital and the mom tells the son to give the tangerine to the woman next to her, she starts gagging and then vomits blood and immediately after that, the mom starts gagging and retching and vomits up a bunch of blood and debris. The son also gags shortly after. I have emetophobia and that was the only scene that bothered me. I muted it and covered most of my eyes, but I could tell it was bad.
