Majestade describes biting into a rat's neck to get it off his finger and some cats have scenes on a brazilian jail so it's not the most hygienic place on earth. also police dogs and horses on "duty".

Não é utilizado fogo para queimar, mas sim água quente. Um detento estava dormindo enquanto o outro jogou água quente nele, que apenas gritou de dor. Na cena seguinte, os demais detentos dizem que ele morreu

i would argue that yes because 1) the living conditions on the jail are ruthless and 2) one of the cops shoots a inmate on his hand, the cops make the inmates sit on the floor naked for days, force them to carry the bodies of other inmates and do a lot of psychological torture on them.

altought it is not specified if Lady Di's character identifies as a trans woman, she uses she/her while mentioning herself and other inmates refer to her as a woman too. she gets deadnamed and misgendered by her mother and father.
