Yes. Nina’s repeated sexual abuse by her father is shown as a significant, disturbing element of the film; many critics called the movie lurid or exploitative in how it handles that material.

Though the actress is an adult, one of the leads (Elisha Cuthbert) plays a teenage girl who is being sexually abused by her father.

Yes. The household contains sexual abuse, physical violence in an confrontation, and neglect (an alcoholic, drug-impaired mother) - so domestic violence and severe family dysfunction are present.

There is a scene where they are dissecting a animal for class. While a common place excercise if you want to avoid it then skip 12:03 - 12:50 :)

Yes. The film’s central abuse plot is that the father, Paul, has been sexually abusing his daughter (incest/child sexual abuse). This is a core element of the story.

Camilla Belle's character Dot is deaf and mute. Several characters refer to her as a 'freak' and 'retard'.
