Wagner has a sexual relationship with the wife of his friend, but it is not really cheating, because he knows about it and accepts it.

Not sure if it's an institution but Otto is kept in a room with bars on the window. Ludwig is also kept under house arrest and treated by psychiatrists.

No slurs but Ludwig was Catholic and struggled with his sexuality, and homosexuality was punishable at the time. Ludwig's cabinet are critical of his homosexual relationships.

Yes, but it's very mild. There is full frontal and rear nudity of a young man but he is shot from a distance and not in a sexual situation (he is swimming). Ludwig holds an "orgy" but the scene only shows several nude and scantily clad men, no sexual acts on screen.

Sort of. Ludwig and Elisabeth are first cousins and share a kiss, but they ultimately remain friends. He is engaged to marry her sister Sophie but calls it off.
