Pearl's mother emotionally abuses her/is strict to the point of neglect (arguably) and tries to hurt her during a fight, while also threatening to kick her out. Pearl later expresses that she doesn't really hate her mother, who she knows "had a hard life."

Pearl’s mother is emotionally abusive. I suppose Pearl is technically not a child but it is a mother-daughter relationship.

To elaborate on the above commenter's statement: there's a scene where Pearl dances with a scarecrow, makes out with it, and then grinds on top of it. The scarecrow is shown to represent one of Pearl's fantasies of a man she meets earlier in the film. Could potentially be triggering for some, but there's no actual human victim involved. Just a straw-stuffed scarecrow.

Technically no BUT there is a part at the very end during the credits where Pearl is staring very eerily, smiling and crying looking very close to the right of the camera looking at Howard. If you are triggered by the fourth wall being broken that I’d suggest skipping til after the credits right after Pearl says something along the lines of “I’m so glad you’re home”
