4.5
Graphic: Antisemitism, War, Injury/Injury detail, and Deportation
Moderate: Child death, Rape, and Torture
Minor: Homophobia and Death of parent
The rape scene is on the verge of being graphic, but it is brief and then mentions of injuries such as bruises are noted later.
Antisemitism because it’s WWII and there is a lot of the story that centers around maltreatment of Jewish people. There is not extensive description of torture or concentration camps.
There are a few scenes that describe war injuries fairly graphically which often lead to death. Some these were also children.
