Fresh Kill
Movie • 1996
ReportSynopsis
Two young lesbian parents, Shareen and Claire are raising their five year old daughter Honey in a converted garage on Staten Island. Shareen salvages refuse with her pickup truck while Claire waits tables at the hip Naga Saki restaurant in Manhattan, caught up in a global exchange of industrial waste via contaminated sushi. As a ghost barge bearing nuclear refuse circles the planet in search of a willing port, household pets begin to glow ominously and then disappear; people start speaking in tongues. The crisis escalates when a multinational corporation is implicated, the couple's daughter Honey mysteriously vanishes, and a group of young New Yorkers strike back in an unlikely alliance with activists in the developing world.

it’s complicated- cats turn green and disappear after eating infected cat food, but no death onscreen or confirmed death— a child who disappears under similar circumstances returns, so the cats may as well

a child disappears, but it is not an act of direct violence (it’s capitalism)

Nobody is assaulted, but there is one scene where a woman sexually harasses a man while she is a patron at the restaurant he works at.

Sorta; a helicopter is said to have crashed, but this happens offscreen.
