Sex & Nudity

  • We see several views of Puchi in a bathtub, but don't see anything more than bare shoulders.
  • Puchi shows varying amounts of cleavage in various outfits in various scenes.
  • Puchi comments on the first time she and Héctor were together, and we then see an exterior view of a parked car moving from the sex occurring in it. We then see an interior car view of Héctor moving on top of Puchi, but she complains about it hurting. He asks if it's him, but she says it's the backseat. We then see a view of her moving on top of him, but there isn't any explicit nudity.
  • We see a man who appears to be passed out, and a woman playfully licks his face. We also see miscellaneous women in bikinis and/or their bras and panties (with lots of skin and cleavage present), including them jumping into a pool dressed that way. One man cavorts with such a scantly clad woman and follows her into a room. We also see Héctor by such a scantly clad woman, and while we don't see anything happen, it's implied they have sex then and/or later.
  • Puchi dances around in small shorts and a midriff-revealing top while watching a woman doing similar dancing on the TV. Héctor asks her to move her "ass" so that he can see the same on the TV woman, with Puchi then playfully saying he can touch and have her "ass," but not that of the woman on the TV. She then crawls on top of him, undoes his pants and runs her hands up under his shirt, but nothing else sexual occurs.
  • A woman is seen in her bra and panties, while a man is seen in his boxers.
  • Puchi and another clothed woman do some sexy dancing, including rubbing their clothed butts together, while the shape of Puchi's nipples can be seen under her dress.
  • While high, Puchi and Héctor watch a male friend with a clothed woman leaning back against him on his lap, somewhat grinding, with his hands groping her clothed breasts. Héctor asks Puchi if she would like to have intercourse with a woman. Puchi replies by suggesting that if Héctor has sex with that guy (saying it will turn her on), she'll "do" the woman. He refuses, but we then see Puchi mocking rear entry intercourse while behind and partially on top of that woman, grinding away (both are clothed).
  • Puchi tells Héctor he needs to spend time with his son and "making love to your wife."
  • Puchi's in a bubble bath and we can see just the tops of her breasts. Héctor then gets into the tub opposite her, still clothed, and the two start to kiss, but the scene ends there.
  • We see black and white, artsy views of Héctor and Puchi having sex, mostly in head & shoulders or close-up views of her face (no nudity, no sounds).
  • We see miscellaneous cleavage.
  • A lot of crude humor and sexually explicit language

Violence & Gore

  • When Puchi comes home in a sexy dress, Héctor says, "My favorite little whore," prompting her to ask if he's in a sexy mood. Instead, he's paranoid and jealous, causing him to grab and throw her to the sofa, demanding to know where she's been.
  • When Puchi approaches Héctor in a club, he has two men restrain her and one does so physically.
  • We see what looks like some blood on the gloved hands of paramedics tending to a wounded person.
  • A lot of domestic violence and abuse towards women.
  • Puchi wakes up to find Héctor with a handgun in his hand (and he's then committed in a psychiatric hospital).
