At the beginning of the movie, Tessa is raped, tortured, and killed. We don't see any of it happen on-screen, but we see glimpses of her body afterward, and other characters discuss it.

Justin is followed (both openly and covertly), threatened, and assaulted by government / corporate agents. Not a good movie for paranoia.

SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS. In the first half of the movie, we (and Justin) are led to believe this may have happened, but it turns out that isn't the case. Tessa did agree to cheat with someone in order to get something she wanted, but she never intended to go through with it, and never did go through with it.

Tessa gives birth in a poor Kenyan clinic. There's a morgue scene as well.

Not actually clear whether the baby was stillborn or born alive then died shortly thereafter. Either way, it's one to avoid if you're sensitive to this.

Tessa is heavily pregnant for much of the first half of the movie. We see her nursing a baby and there are a few other scenes with people carrying a baby.
