Not exactly a slap, but the main character hits his mother with dementia with a VHS tape across the face. She gets hurt quite badly and there is a clear wound.

Does someone vomit?

Around the 1:40:00 mark, David gets hit in the stomach which leads to him leaning over and vomiting. The audio isn’t too bad but it’s fairly graphic, probably a 6/10. Once he gets hit, avoid your eyes and you should be okay. Earlier in the movie when David’s mom is sitting at the kitchen table making crafts she briefly speaks about a little girl, most likely her daughter, named Penny and how she would feed her corn dogs before putting her on a roller coaster, which would lead to her vomiting. It’s implied this happened numerous times. There is not depiction/video/audio, but vomit is mentioned.

(hello again, I also have visual sensitivity! It's not too bad but I had to dim my screen for this movie)
1. The tape close-ups are moving a bit too much
2. Dimmed, neon colours during a scene with rollerblades, can be eye straining
3. Static on screen used a lot

David's mom, who has dementia, is abused towards the end and is killed. She is also neglected in a few scenes. He also says that "she took everything from him" and if she "realizes what she has done", which could be interpreted as ableist in context. Is called "cr4zy and a dad killer"
