Just using this field to give people a heads up that this is the type of movie where everything is deliberately very disturbing- a "feel bad" movie, if you will. I wanted to mention it, because the overall vibe / theme of the movie is much more difficult than the sum of it's triggers.

Not violence, but Dawn's parents are extremely negligent of her to the point they don't even notice when she goes missing

Dawn is emotionally abused and neglected by almost every adult in her life. Missy is kidnapped by a pedophile, though the police say she is physically unharmed.
