deranged teenage shepherd in fucked up town,
Spoiler
sucks on the nipples of a delusional very very old lady — who is over a century, was blind, grew up in a cave, learned to talk to birds, regained her sight, and let a teenage boy go down on her — ,kills his cousin — a bully and the son of the local lord but also not really his cousin in the end because his adoptive father is only the guy who kidnapped and raped the boy’s mother after she had tried to escape her family where she was also being raped by her own brother, hence the pregnancy, the old shepherd then tells the boy his mother died in childbirth when she had just escaped and went to a convent, that she tries to leave during a famine only for the old shepherd to find her again and rape her again—Graphic: Animal death, Body horror, Child abuse, Domestic abuse, Incest, Pedophilia, Emotional abuse, Murder, Pregnancy, Sexual assault, Sexual violence, Violence, Rape, Abortion, Blood, Death, Death of parent, Injury/Injury detail, Physical abuse, Sexual content, Abandonment, Adult/minor relationship, Animal cruelty, Sexual harassment, Torture, and War
