A character is implied to have sexually assaulted his sister in the past (and been "forgiven" for it by their parents) and acts sexually predatory towards her again onscreen, is jealous of her sexual relationship with another man, behaves posessively towards her, and enables their parents abusing her to prevent her from leaving their insular small town/cult.

The protagonist's father tries to coerce him into drinking and ridicules him for refusing, another character's parents excuse her brother sexually abusing her. The majority of the parental relationships in the film are depicted as very unhealthy and dysfunctional and controlling as part of the storyline.
