Viena and the Fantomes

Characters scuffle outside a bar but are quickly pushed apart. It's said that young girls, including a teen, have accused a character of attacking them. A man tells a woman that he wants to "harm her and see her suffering," though this never actually happens.

Characters have sex with movements and noises; no nudity. Passionate kissing is followed by sex scenes in beds and up against the wall; at one point, a woman groans and squeezes her pillow as a man moves his hand suggestively.

Language includes "motherf----r," "f--k," "f--king," "bitch," and "a--hole." Plenty of insulting language, like when one character calls another a "f--king retard," and a woman is called a "f--king skank."

Characters smoke frequently, drink beer and liquor, smoke pot, take unnamed pills. Scene in which character says she doesn't want to take a pill, but another character forces her to. Characters who drink seem sloppy, out of it.

Parents need to know that Viena and the Fantomes is a drama about a young woman (Dakota Fanning) who joins a punk band on tour. Many characters smoke, chain-smoking and holding/smoking cigarettes much of the time they're on-screen. Characters also continually drink both liquor and beer -- getting sloppy and sometimes violent -- as well as smoke pot and take various drugs, including unnamed pills. In one scene, a woman who says she doesn't like pills is forced to take one by her male partner. Characters hook up for consequence-free casual sex. Nothing gets too explicit, but you can expect passionate kissing and sex scenes with suggestive movements and noises. Language is frequent and includes "motherf----r," "f--k," "f--king," "bitch," "a--hole," "retard," and more. On-screen violence is infrequent except for a scene in which young men fight outside a bar, but there's an air of menace throughout the movie, and young women fear sexual violence. Viewers also hear that band members have "attacked" female fans, including teens. The traveling punk lifestyle looks grubby and dispiriting, with characters treating each other unkindly instead of pulling together to form a supportive community.
