The main character and all the girls she's in prison with. There is also simulated child pornography shown towards the end of the movie when they open the antagonist's shed, in the form of pornographic magazines with titles like "young girls," "teens," etc with full nudity on the covers, as well as polaroids

Minimal. There are lots of cops, and they are portrayed in an extremely negative light for most of the movie, but it redeems them at the end.

A man says he's claustrophobic before being locked in a trunk. Many scenes in the movie are shot inside a car, which could be slightly claustrophobic.

The movie is based on little red riding hood, so there's a man in a dress at the end. They don't make a joke of it, but he's a sexual predator and the implication is that he's mentally unstable and was doing it to get close to his victim.

The main character's stepfather was taking advantage of her since the age of eleven. There are really graphic descriptions of what happened, and csa and grooming are prominent aspects of the story, so proceed with caution.
