A miniature donkey dies (not technically a horse but I think anyone concerned with horses would probably be equally concerned with a donkey)

The miniature donkey Jenny dies.
Here's how: (WARNING! it's pretty awful so only read ahead if you're prepared for that)
She chokes to death trying to eat a severed human finger. Her death is not shown on screen, but her body is shown laying by a pile of her vomit when her owner finds her, and he fishes the finger out of her mouth. It's pretty disturbing if you're sensitive to animal death.

Pádraig guesses the entire film why Colm is avoiding him and doesn't really get a clear answer, it causes him to act in a way that's unusual for him.

A character (whose age is not given, but meant to be a teenager or in their twenties) is beaten and molested by their father. We don’t see any abuse actually depicted.

One man gets drunk to build courage in two scenes, but beyond that, people don’t abuse alcohol. There is a lot of drinking and scenes of people getting drunk, but it’s depicted accurately as a part of rural Irish life.

At one point someone punches another character in the face, and he falls to the floor unconscious. The camera remains on him for a couple of seconds before the scene ends

Not technically but a lot of synonyms are.
Also there is a lot of ableism about unintelligent characters. It's actually the main theme.

SPOILERS!! I don’t know if this counts but we see two quite close up shots of animal v*mit on the ground after the animal has choked and died but no human v*mits. It is completely safe aside from this.

The only garda depicted in the film is the film’s worst character with no redeeming qualities and who constantly abuses his power

character who comes across as autistic is hated by most of the town, one character finds out he gets beaten by his father and she says that it’s good that he gets beaten and if she was able she’d beat him as well.

It’s not confirmed but there’s an unexplained death and implied suicidal ideation. Also the obvious self harm.

In addition to the scene mentioned, in another scene, a garda talks about the death of a townsperson who died of suicide. The shopkeeper he talks to is very sympathetic, but the garda is harshly derivative of the person.

I didn’t read the crying scene as Pádraic being ridiculed for crying; rather Colm leaving because he felt a certain guilt
