Sex & Nudity
-
- There is nothing sexual
- A photo visible for about a second contains a naked baby in a hospital setting. Not sexual, but is still nudity.

Examples of these references are; discussions of "the pill", yelling about male genitalia, a joke about a man kissing his male friend. More serious sexual references comes in the allegations of a person being sexually crude, show with videos of the person being physical with theirs partner, and a couple discuss their attempts to become pregnant.

Spoilers
Violence & Gore
- The discussion of Andrew Bagby's murder is intense. Early in the documentary it is described in detail, illustrated by clips of Andrew as a child as well as phone calls from his alleged murderer. Later in the film, images of the body are shown (although it may be a dramatic recreation), where closeups of his bloody head, body and crotch are shown flashing between image and a black screen, so they can be easily missed.
- Murder-suicide is discussed containing a baby.
- It is stated that a "mentally fit" woman had attempted suicide before, and while imprisoned was placed under suicide watch.
Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking
- Near the end of the film, a major character uses prescription drugs to kill herself and another.
Frightening & Intense Scenes
- The documentary includes emotional details surrounding the death of a 13 month old baby. This includes a close-up shot of his face when his body was in a casket.
- Dear Zachary is a very depressing film, with moderate discussion of a woman committing suicide with a baby strapped round her chest. The discovery of this is INCREDIBLY SHOCKING AND DEPRESSING and will 100% make you cry, especially knowing what the politicians said about the murderer (who was apparently not mentally ill). After the discovery, some incredibly intense and distressing music plays as images off a newspaper is shown in red as the screen violently shakes, making it more depressing.
- An elderly couple describe their experience and regrets from cremating their son, and how they rectified the mistakes with their grandson. Extremely emotional.
