Drug use (mescaline) is mentioned, but never shown onscreen. Alcohol and tobacco cigarettes are used frequently.

There's a shower scene near the beginning of the film, as well as where a living person is floating in water naked (though you only see his back/front upper half).

SPOILER--------- No, but it is explicitely implied that the protagonist wanted to commit suicide. He still dies, but not by suicide.

Not entirely frontal. There is a photograph in which you can see male pubic hair. There are also several nude shots from the back.

There is a minimal amount of blood seen in the beginning of the film, and a small bit later on, but both is similar to blood from an average cut
