Multiple people end up in sexual/romantic situations with a character who has taken on the physical appearance of Nora, the protagonist, which they probably would not have consented to had they known it was a different person.

Nora becomes sick and sort of throws up later in the film, but it’s offscreen and very poorly acted.

It depends on your level of tolerance. Nora and Jim are extremely neglectful of their child because of their alcoholism and the child is repeatedly endangered and threatened by the villain.

Nora attempts to commit suicide with a knife, and is encouraged to do so by her grandmother, but is saved by plot contrivances.

There is a lot of making out and attempted seduction, but it’s not very graphic.

A little. A character has his throat slit and is decapitated offscreen, and Nora slits her own throat. There are also other scenes of semi-graphic violence with guns and many scenes of the other characters attempting to kill Niamh and failing through various methods, like electrocution and stabbing.

Nora and Jim (the protagonists) are both alcoholics. They intend to stop drinking based on the advice of a doctor, but they never do, and their alcoholism is part of nearly every scene of the film.
