Child is shown in some kind of bizarre unpleasant setting and themes of motherhood as a burden, but no literal abuse is shown

In a sequence of surreal images at the beginning, we see a sheep's head being cut off and there's a brief shot of some organs.

This is one of those movies where even the literal plot is up to interpretation. There is a sex scene which I believe is consensual but you could view as rape by deception or lack of capacity to consent, if you interpret the film in certain ways. There is also some imagery that evokes common rape imagery in films

Not exactly finger mutilation per se, but a large metal spike is driven through a person's hand at the start of the film, and it is shown a second time later.

The movie revolves around what sort of resembles mental health treatment, some of which seems inappropriate, but the film explicitly says the character is not mentally ill but is choosing to be mute on purpose. Don’t know if that makes it better or worse, so voting yes just to be safe

The whole film is incredibly abstract and up to interpretation, with the ending included. It's more sad than happy, but I would describe it as "confusing" or "abstract" instead of "sad."
