A family is stalked. I'm not sure child abuse is the right trigger warning for this film.

Not the word itself because it wasn't allowed at the time, but the act itself is alluded to or described several times

Once before the events of the movie.
Another rape (not shown) at approximately 30 minutes.
Later, the antagonist recounts an incident where he raped his ex-wife.
